This is what I mean. I appreciate that it is possible to install software on Linux via double-clicking on a package, but...sudo apt install is the go-to and default method of installing software on the OS. It says much about the core paradigm of the OS. Which again, is not a criticism.
Can you imagine explaining how to install software via the command prompt in Windows or even Mac? I could have a go, but...I'm not sure it would work. Linux and Windows come from two different paradigms. I doubt the Linux interface will ever be as dumb-user friendly as Windows because it was fundamentally never conceived for them. Which again, is fine.
