I don't want to compile anything. I don't want to "make". I don't want to use command lines. I don't want to download Rust. Or know the difference between python2 and python3 and how you still have to be specific about it. I never wanna read a git manual with lines that mean nothing to me again. I don't care about snap or flatpack or whatever package distribution gives me a year old version of my program on this distro and how that version differs from the one from the webpage.
Sorry Linux, but a big download button, double click, "install to c:/program files", "want a short cut to desktop", done. is the gold standard for 99% of applications.
I know there are reasons. But still, it sucks.
