  • Yes, I agree, but then, what would be an alternative?

    Store it into a file, chmod it and run it? git clone the repo and run a script from it? I don’t think any of those would be different, apart from having more steps most people won’t even check anything.

    I don’t know if we can fix this while allowing people to run stuff they don’t understand on their machines. Maybe community curated scripts or something, know the people who does the stuff and only run stuff made by people you already know.

    I think we’re running too fast, we need to chill down, idk.

    This is great!

    You mentioned the name of the developer of systemd and it sounded to me like there’s a problem with that person in particular. Is that what you meant? I’m aware people have their feelings about systemd, but haven’t heard anything about the developer, am I missing something or just overthinking it?

    But that isn’t the job of the terminal, but the shell, isn’t it? I don’t know how they’d do that, but it feels like they’d have to assume a lot of stuff. On top of that, if you use multiplexers like tmux or embeded terminals like in emacs, for example, you’d most probably lose some of the features.

    I don’t get how we need anything else than just a terminal that is fast, supports 256 colors (or true color, if you’re feeling fancy,) and changing the font.
