How did they end up thinking that everything must be done with terminal while using Ubuntu?
When asking for help in a Linux sub/forum/community, the answer will generally use the terminal because it works across desktops and even distros.

This may lead to the impression that the terminal is required for day to day use of Linux.

I found a huge file called vmuniz iirc and couldn't see anything using using it. The file was deleted and the job was done. Until we rebooted.
They domesticated humans to do that for them
