    This is the most Lemmy interaction I’ve seen in awhile:

    Linux is fine without CLI for web browsing.

    …

    But when I needed an advanced secure virtual machine isolated torrent solution, I had to use the CLI.

    …

    Here’s some thoughts on accomplishing that in Linux without the CLI.

    I’m not complaining, just watching in admiration of you all.

      I mean. I don’t mind CLI, but I found it ridiculous that there seems to be no default text editor on Ubuntu. Like, I couldn’t look into a text file without pulling up the terminal.

        The Linux community is able to agree on many things… But what you ask… It’s just too much…

        (I’m making a humorous reference to the constant arguments about the best editor… But… Also conceding your point.)

        Do we not have a default graphical text editor?

        I’m enough of an editor snob that I don’t even know what the default is… If there is one.

        I can see how I’m probably part of the problem, in this case.
