“Nah man, you should just install this terminal app and memorize 500 shortcuts to go back one directory”
I mean this is also how it works in Windows with Admin mode, but I think I’ve had to use sudo to do many more things than I had to use admin in windows.
Yeah, Windows uses the same flawed permissions model but in Unix so many tasks require root access. It reminds me of Vista’s UAC implementation where it prompted for admin access so often a lot of people just turned it off.
it’s because most distributions don’t build and install packages with user permissions. check out home-manager for a fix to this.
Thanks for the recommendation, I might give this a go.
Based on the description on their github page, this isn’t really mature enough to help the non-technical user who’s copy pasting sudo commands though.
