Command line dominates in quick flexibility. But is awful when it comes to discoverability. Most people can't even find the turn off ads button in windows 11. And people hate that. So what hope do they have at a terminal.
- thsksbd 2y agoI think Ms Dos 6ish TUI integration was very well done, better than Linux today. Word perfect had good mouse support, as did Editor.
- pizzafeelsright 2y agoI have a theory that TUI is masculine and GUI is feminine.
- efreak 2y agoTo be fair, would the button isn't hidden away too badly, most people have no reason to go into settings for anything. They go through the wizard at the beginning (if that) to do first-time setup, then when they decide they don't like something they just deal with it or complain incessantly until someone fixes it for them. Someone complained to me a while back about the size of icons on the windows desktop being too small - I told them they can hold Ctrl and scroll the mouse wheel to change the zoom level. They've complained about the same thing a couple times since, and so far as I can tell have made no effort to fix it.
