Is it just me that dislikes when packages are mentioned instead of a series of terminal commands? I don’t want to install a package. Why would I want to rely on a package and it’s maintainer when I could write a shell script using the tools native to my OS?
Yes, that’s just you and probably explains why you are on a programming Lemmy instance. Personally I like to use the terminal myself for reasons including starting some GUI applications but I am sure that most people (“normies”) would run away screaming if the first moment they would spot a terminal. See, everyone has their own preferences :)
