They are as open as OpenAI

Excuse me while I puke

There is a lot of conflicting information in this thread. Installation of Steam from package manager VS deb from Valve VS official Flatpak VS official Snap. I know that the official Snap is terrible so I’m ignoring it. The Flatpak has some permission issue but I heard it solves some compatibility issues for some games.

Someone should make a comprehensive guide for each type.

As a millennial myself, I have immense respect for “tech boomers”. They walked so that we could run during the 90s tech boom.

I have seen young people not knowing any other directory other than Downloads and not understanding that there is a filesystem inside their phone.

The file is not in my downloads

Me: Have you checked other directories?

Other directories?

Me: Okay, open your file manager.

What’s a file manager?

Me: Okay, do you have Google Files (an application which I detest but I know is pre-installed in Android phone)

Umm…have to check.

How do you save a picture? Where is Downloads? How do you apply a saved picture as a wallpaper?

These are confusing questions to boomers and Gen Z.

Why not have a simple app which “automatically” does all the hard work (just in exchange of a little of your data)?
