"Just gotta enable the OEIS menu in the .sysbin folder and it'll make that program CHIM, that should solve your problem"
What it looks like when I ask "how do I put Cura on the taskbar"

I don't know why such answers get so many upvotes.
The real answer is: Right-click -> Pin to Taskbar. (In sane desktop environments like KDE. If you choose to install Fancy DE Alpha 0.0.2, you know what you got into!)
Yeah we are in a meme community, still I like my memes based on reality, makes them way funnier.
(Also having a standard place for documentation for everything is a blessing!)

Sure but it’s not a rarity that forum answers expect you to be very familiar with linux file structures and terminal commands. If you’re a beginner who runs into an issue (as beginners do), you oftentimes need to find a tutorial and then tutorials that explain the tutorial. It gets even worse if you’re not on a debian/ubuntu based distro (although, to be fair, if you’re a newbie, that’s sorta asking for trouble).

“Why dont windows users switch to Linux????”

Or you just use Arch and have one place for all the apps (AUR) and one place for all the manuals (ArchWiki)
And when using endeavourOS you get an easy install on top it, and as a bonus a nice tool to install / uninstall nvidia proprietary drivers using a single command as well.
Pure love 🥰
Ah, and just typing yay, updates everything 👌🏻

You‘re a step too far again though. The average newbie would insta-panic by the thought of using the terminal. Needing a command to install drivers or to update is already too hard.
Arch based distros like Manjaro, endeavorOS or even SteamOS, for that matter are great (have used manjaro myself in the past until I settled for fedora/nobara) and the AUR can make acquiring software a lot easier. However, the moment something breaks, a newbie will be lost and the Arch Wiki won’t save someone who doesn’t know what to look for in the first place.
If anything, my recommendation for absolute beginners (as long as their hardware isn’t state of the art or they want to game, primarily) would be Mint. It’s easy to set up, has a nifty (and graphical) driver installer, has a default DE that is close enough to windows as to not confuse someone who hasn’t used anything else in their life and also, it shares enough DNA with ubuntu that most tutorials out there work without having shit like snap in there.

😁thank you for your very reasonable and correct answer (well with some little parts I disagree just a bit) in a meme community 😇✌🏻

I'm concerned if CHIM is what I think it is, I don't think I want the computer doing that.

You don't want your computer to gain incredible, godlike powers?

"The real problem is that you're using Cura and not Orca"
