    At this day and age, it’s easy to avoid dealing with terminal entirely, even with the more advanced use case like system backup & restore.

    The only basic task I can think of that requires terminal would be auto-removing obsolete packages like older kernels.

    There are niche use cases that require terminal, but you probably won’t get into that anytime soon.


  • This, exactly. As much as I’d want to recommend my personal setup, it’s just easier to just tell people to install Linux Mint, both for myself and for them, because of the little amount of steps one would need to do in order to get a working system.

    I do wish someone would come up with something similar but with KDE, because of how similar they are to Windows UI, especially Windows 7. Maybe that’s just me.
