TL;DR: make bug reports and look for support in the support channels, not google.

No? I don't want to. I have no responsibility to. And even if I did, I'm sure this isn't the kind of discussion that's never been had before.

most often thats because it's much faster to do it in the terminal if you know how

I'm sure it is. I don't know how. And every time I try, I end up spending hours trying to figure it out, which is the opposite of fast. Put a button I can click and there's no need to go scowering the web looking for the exact correct combination of random characters to type in the black box.

post/send smth in the KDE communities on here or on the matrix

That's just takes even more time, and is often either ignored or berated for being so ignorant to ask the question in the first place or for not searching it first.

there are graphical ways to do most of these things that work, you're just new and dont know where they are.

There aren't. And even when there are, the support sites will send you into the terminal every time anyway.

even though it can be avoided most of the time you are best off familiarizing yourself with the command line at least a little so you can troubleshoot quicker and better

I don't want to do that. I don't know why it's so hard to understand that some people just want to use their PCs and not spend all their time trying to figure out how to make them do things that other computers can just figure out how to do by clicking buttons in a menu.
