I’ve been using Linux for 30+ years so using a command line isn’t a problem. In fact my experience is a problem because my goto commands and config files have all been deprecated.
For example I immediately tried ifconfig. You’re probably too young to even know that command.
ifconfig was deprecated in 2009. I got into Linux in the last 10 years and still used ifconfig. Sure, it’s deprecated and no longer included in most modern installs, but you can still download and use it as before. A lot of guides online used ifconfig, so it’s a pretty common package for inexperienced users to download, even if deprecated.
Which is exactly what I said if you’d stop being hostile. I tried ifconfig, it wasn’t there. Googled saw instructions for both ifconfig and ip. Read more saw ifconfig deprecated. Saw /network/interfaces is deprecated. But when you Google it shows that and systemd information. As I said, I knew enough to know what I was reading and got it working.
you haven’t been using torrents, Ubuntu, or VPNs for 30 years. why would you lie about that?

Mate reread my comment. I’m not the one being hostile
