I wanted to install jackett and sonarr, they are complicated to use as is, moreover I am using Ubuntu. I am following fuidleine for installing jackett with STUPID command line making it EXTRA difficult. But now I have to change directory ownerships and what nots. I am the ONLY user on this machine. I want to own everything by default I am root I am admin I am user I am all. How do I make this happen instead of sending stupid commands all the time and making using Linux EASY. Before anyone getting on about Security I don’t give 2centa about it .I just want to use and install and do whatever I wish.

How do I make this happen Forever, once inför all.

    No you don’t want to be root or admin or whatever. You want not to have your external programs like your browser, email client what have you to run as root. You don’t want malware without the ability to intervene.

    Not even under Windows are you running as admin all the time.

    So perhaps consider learning why it is a good idea to run your user at low privileges.

    And while you are at it, most if not all programs come with documentation and or man pages. To access the latter use the command man <name of the command>
