I'm just not interested in rehashing this conversation. Anyone who has used Linux already knows, even if they won't admit it. Being dishonest about it isn't helping anyone. I used Windows for 30 years and never touched any kind of CLI in that time. I did use it on MacOS but only for Homebrew because there's no other GUI alternative.

    OK, if your talking homebrew on Mac, then your not just doing "basic" things. yes, for power users on Linux, we need to use the CLI. For actual basic things (browsing, word processing, consuming media) you absolutely don't need to touch it at all on many "noob" distros.

    So claiming that there's a steep learning curve for basic things is going to turn off new users, who would be perfectly fine never looking at a terminal to do what they need
