Anyone who’s done “/gamemode creative” is smart enough to figure out “yt-dlp ”. Seriously people need to stop acting like typing the most basic commands that you can find tutorials about is some kinda level 9 magic

It's not that peoplecan't figure it out, it's that they won't. As soon as you mention the terminal they stop listening or thinking

/gamemode creative doesn't have that problem because it's not a terminal, it's a chat window

I think saying “anything command line isn’t for normies” would only worsen the problem

[–] essell@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I think you've defined the problem rather well there..

It's not that Normies couldn't use it, it's that Normies won't use it.

Which generally helps it fly under the radar so us nerds can have nice things for longer.

I’m not for gate keeping, but I kinda like having tricky things if it means they don’t get ruined/stopped as fast.
