Fake news. Ubuntu has had a graphical installer as far back as I remember. At least 12.04. Probably 8.04.
And plenty of very capable TUI installers even back in the 90s.
Yeah, I’ve used dozens of different distros for the past 15 years and the vast majority have had either graphical or text installers, both dirt simple.
But can you easily sign up online for a free Linux account?
