I don't disagree, but it's very funny that LinusTechTips went through that exact process a moment before publically destroying his desktop on PopOS
Right, but pretty much everyone but Linus and his sycophants agree that was a bone headed mistake. If you type "I understand what I am doing..." and you do not understand- you are asking for trouble.
Granted, that bug shouldn't have existed in the first place but I feel like the warning should have raised a big red flag for a 'tech expert'. It almost feels like he did it on purpose to prove some sort of point about how Linux 'isn't there yet' but ofc there is no way to prove that.
