Some #GNU #linux programs are really trash, inconsistent UX, most notably example GNUpg with his fururistic chatbot-like experience that try to "understand what command you mean" failing everytime.

Another peak bad linux UX is the damned wireless wpa connection that require to use 5 different utilities inconsistent with each other just to connect to the damned wifi jesus and imagine to change resolv.conf file and set it to read-only just to make the dns-proxy stick and avoid network-manager rewritr the file every 2 minutes.

How many utilities are needed on openbsd? Just one, ifconfig. How pages is long a fucking config that set an automatic connection at startup with correct wpa resolution? 2 consistent and simple lines of config.

Hey nostr:nprofile1qqsw3znfr6vdnxrujezjrhlkqqjlvpcqx79ys7gcph9mkjjsy7zsgygpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsz8thwden5te0dehhxarj9ekh2arfdeuhwctvd3jhgtnrdakj7qgkwaehxw309ajkgetw9ehx7um5wghxcctwvshspg7dju I think I'm near to join your "hate linux club", I'm still on a gentoo machine compiling gcc because I fall for the "linux is the common standard" narrative and I have solarpanel so can compile free basically.

There's a lot of trash software irrespective of whether it's GNU or not. I didn't experience the problems you describe for past 10 years. Though GPG has significant problems, that's true.
