Wrong meme. The dark place is systemd.
Man pages are fairly useless in my experience, at least compared to the internet. I can see where they had a place at some point though.
I’ll never understand someone’s need to “self own” by exposing the fact they either won’t or can’t read.
Man pages are great, you’re just not reading.
Look, I don’t need all of the options, just give me an example command for the common use case

Jesus Christ, if I didn’t know already what to type I would never figure it out
Like all the examples on that page under the header “examples”?
Skill issue tbh.
Manpages are good reference documentation when you already know which tool to use and how to use it and just need to tweak something. They can often be overwhelming otherwise. Just look at the number of flags on any git command, for example.
You’ve nailed this here, yet get downvotes. The amount of times I’ve gone to a man page and my eyes glaze over. Really handy to learn new flags or if you forget, but as an introductory material. They don’t work for everyone. People learn in different ways, sometimes by doing and my brain isn’t wired this way.
I’m so fucking sick of every Linux meme being negative… Like are we supporting the community or actively trying to sabotage it?
Fuxk all these memes
Linux makes the word turn
Learn it and support it
This all started as irony, but it has gone too far
Regroup and get creative you sad intelligent fucks
Even with that title people still missed the sarcasm, mad
