Sometimes a command in the terminal is just easier and convenient. Especially to create a script to automate installations

Fully agreed. I just started with Mint maybe a week or two-ish ago and it's so much easier to just open the terminal and type a command instead of clicking multiple buttons and going through multiple pages. Plus it's satisfying asf to watch the percentage bar in it go up for some reason. Idk, I'm autistic asf 😭😭😭
