Real Linux users use curl and render the page in their imagination.
Imagination? That’s bloat.
Just use lynx
Linux users install chrome now…?
Well they already had firefox installed it seems
Tutorials like this that are really simple might be a good way yo introduce the idea that Linux does not need to be difficult or complex.
Chrome is so common and it demonstrates that you can use something familiar on Linux.
Yup, that’s been my experience with getting people to at least consider Linux as well. The first thing they ask when I tell them it’s a different OS like Mac is, “so can it run XYZ?” Most people don’t actually care and just want something that runs the apps they use.
Interestingly, my mom (a Windows user her whole life) seemed just as alienated by macOS as by Linux. Her work gave her a Mac and she couldn’t understand anything after about a week so she just asked for a Windows system instead.
Of course. The GUI package manager is the first thing I always show people. I was still just making a joke though
Only for stuff that really requires my Google-account
it’s always important to install chrome so google can see the first website you visit before you uninstall is www.firefox com/download
But… Firefox is always already installed.
Ah yes, the bait-and-switch strategy
The GIF shows a system where generally speaking this is not required (it could have been Firefox instead of Chrome).
Ok but the joke is that you install Chrome just to install Firefox then uninstall Chrome…
I don’t know why so many windows users find it so difficult to install software on linux.
Use the app store like you do on your phone
And yet, they keep opening a browser and searching “how do I install X”.
🤷
