Why is it acceptable to use command line to setup Windows, but not Linux?

Bottom line is, if you're not willing to put the minimal effort in, then you shouldn't ever complain about Windows being shit.

you seem to have misinterpreted or misread this comment thread, sorry.

No, seems pretty clear to me.

and they are certainly much harder to migrate to than checks notes pressing two keys and running a command to get a local account.

Then literally immediately, in the same comment:

Good luck getting more than a few hours into a fresh linux install without needing to use a CLI, lol

Good luck installing your pirated Windows without needing to use the CLI, lol.

quoting me and saying “don’t you see?” is not exactly demonstrating reading comprehension.

if you want to go on a crusade against CLIs, feel free, but leave me out. i think they’re great.

the comparison i replied to was whether it was easier to migrate to Linux vs setting up a local account, and any user is going to spend much more time migrating than running a single command.

I have nothing against, CLI, the point is that you're complaining about needing to use CLI on Linux, even though you literally just said that you have to use it to get your pirated Windows to work.
