[β] yboutros@infosec.pub 3 points 2 years ago (2 children) tldr is a billion times better than man pages, apt install tldr Trusssssst permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [β] jadedwench@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago The best was on arch because I had no idea how to use pacman, which I needed to install man, when I needed how to use pacman. I will have to take a look at tldr. I mostly use Debian without a desktop environment, but have an Arch VM for gaming here and there. Works out. permalink fedilink source parent [β] blackbirdbiryani@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago Agreed, in any context where I'd open man I'd rather tldr instead. If you needed to read chunks of documentation like in man I'd rather just google the docs instead than clunkily try to read in terminal. permalink fedilink source parent
