min_fapper,

Apt does not have most packages you need anymore. You have to add custom repositories for everything. Which means you have to go to a website and still run a whole bunch of commands. Worst of both worlds. Other distros are not as bad, but between snap, flathub, etc. Linux package management is not in a good state at the moment.

min_fapper,

The sad part is that it used to be simple. You could do apt install whatever and it would usually get it.

They also used to have a graphical frontend for apt, which felt like an app store before app stores (and even the iPhone itself) existed.

I suspect it’ll get simple again. If canonical doesn’t do it, some other distro will overtake it.
