You all should have stayed on IRC

You're not wrong, but also, it's way too complicated for the regular person to use. A better UX is needed.

People downvoting you don't seem to remember the whole "messages aren't delivered while you're not online" thing

TIL that typing in a username, server address and hitting 'Connect' is a bad UX.

GUI > CL. 😇

I get the testicular fortitude that someone has to have to make that kind of comment here on Lemmy, that has very hardcore Linux tech-based audience, but still, the general electronics using public would agree with what I'm saying.

UX is more than just a single login.

I used to on irc when i was 10 fucking years old. You type.in the serve and then type #before the room you want to use.

Did they put lead back in gasoline when i wasn't looking or something?

We used to fly on planes by laying stomach down on the wing. Didn't make it the best way to fly though.

The UX of any process/device gets improved over time, and adapts to the generation that is using it.

Would the newest gens even know what a command line prompt even is at this point?
