    A windows user downloading a random executable and unchecking all of the boxes that install malware (it is easier than pressing one “Install” button in an app store):

      I switched my main to linux about a year ago and install everything through terminal at this point.

      I had to download something on a windows system once recently and i was not prepared with how backwards this entire process felt.

      I cant understand how i had stuck with such bullshit for so long.

      A Linux user running random commands to add a new repo that points to malware (their package manager does not have the program they want by default)

      Note: I just did this to install Librewolf, Mullvad, and VS Codium
