Lol, you installed Arch Linux, with Hyperland, and the complained about how it requires CLI for advanced stuff?
Try Linux Mint or something simpler. At least pick a fair comparison for change.
No no, you read my comment wrong. I used to complain about the cli and lack of gui while trying ubuntu.. with a gui.
I am loving my arch setup. And i aint changing soon. Even if really its gpt-4 being a massive mvp to tell me how to do stuff.
Its wasnt as much the cli stuff or any of the advanced stuff i wanted that was the problem but just that my autistic ass needed some easy/good accessible help to learn it in a way schools,google and youtube never could. Commandline is fun now and i look forward to seeing the random pokemon i get every time.
Ah I see! I missed the 'then' part and assumed you're describing the setup you're complaining about.
What version of Ubuntu were you using? While I have felt like this in the past, it's been improving more and more to a point I could configure all I need without CLI (selection of toolset does come a long way).
Not sure but it was a desktop version with a gui. This was on my dedicated server so not my main machine that i switched to arch. I've actually went to completely remove that ubuntu which was a mess from my own misdoings and experiments and started from scratch with the last LTS version of linux-server, fully in commandline. In less then a weekend i restored all the initial functionality, fixed the previously broken functionality and added some extra features to it. But again the moment i dont know how to do something i am skipping google straight for the AI genie.
