To be fair most applications don’t give you shit till you launch it in a terminal. That’s something I’d wish would improve on Linux. My mother would get pretty frustrated so I assume most average people would be too.
For example lutris recognizes your missing wine but it just loads indefinitely.
If you don’t have all the dependencies for alacrity it just doesn’t launch.
If you don’t have all the dependencies for gparted on Wayland it just doesn’t launch.
Most apps don’t create error messages in the gui and that’s hard for average users to grasp.
