    “easier solutions”

    No: pet solutions. Don’t let false consensus dictate the wrong labels.

      pet solutions

      I’ve never heard this term before. My searches online aren’t bringing up anything useful, it’s all stuff about literal pets. I can’t seem to wrap my mind around what it could mean or the right thing to search to find the answer. Could someone explain please?

        It’s an expression coined by Corsican Guppy in the mid 2020s, referring to a solution to a Linux/Unix problem that uses a Graphic User Interface, as opposed to one using the command line.

          That sounds awfully derogative towards the average user.

            I hear the average small freshwater fish from a Mediterranean island feels nothing but scorn towards the average user.

            I think it’s just a Name for some specific containers on Linux.

            Im confident OP is using it wrong. Well, as confident as one can be that had heard the word the first time today.
