            This is learned helplessness. Especially for someone who took the time to go waste time on Lemmy in stead of Reddit, you could have learned it in the time it took to complain about it taking effort.

              This is learned not-wasting-my-timeness. And no, I couldn’t. I have tried, several times. I don’t waste my time anymore.

                Have some faith in yourself. You’re not an idiot. Find a friend to show you or smth. I’m not a terminal advocate, I avoid it as much as possible, but in a thread about corporations and scammers relying on user ignorance, this behavior is defeatist.

                  I’m not an idiot. As I’ve already said, I just don’t have the time. LOL @ the idea of any of my friends even knowing what a command line is, much less knowing how to use it any better than I do. You people live in this bubble where you think everyone on the planet is a software engineer. This is not reality.
