From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

While this may be true (I really have no idea at this point), terminal is a superpower, pretty much the best option for anything except manually dragging and dropping files one by one.
Nautilus can move groups of numbered files, which is useful for image frames stored separately. But it has bugs. One of them won't let you start a sequential move from any number other than 1. Which is idiotic.
Dolphin can't even do that.
The command line can, easily.
I never use the terminal. It's not necessary for me. I'm not an IT user. I'm not missing out on anything. Many things I do don't even have a terminal command. It's important new users know this if they are not in to IT.
It's useful for any meaningful use of a computer.
That's flat out objective bullshit.
