its only user unfriendly if youre used to having a gui for everything like windows and mac users in all reallity the real issue comes from children not being taught how to use computers growing up and instead relying on shitty non foss bloatware like windows
But that is the reality of most users today. They expect to have a GUI because it gives them the options right there, rather than having to go and learn what commands this particular system accepts. If you don't cater to those users, like my parents, my friends, my grandparents, my teachers, and basically everyone I know who isn't a computer nerd, and then expect them to "come to their senses" you will be very disappointed. Good design meets users where they're at, it doesn't expect them to "educate themselves."
right but thats not an os issue thats a societal issue you wouldnt expect someone using a car not to understand how to swap oil or replace windshield fluid right?
So user unfriendly for literally every regular user.
That is the definition of not being user friendly.
nah only for ones with incompetent parents
