help newcomers/distro hoppers
Classification: Applications
Product: konsole
Version First 25.08.2
Reported In:
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR

Concept Art.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
Be a newcomer and distro hopper and try to do something common, such as
installing/removing/updating something.
OBSERVED RESULT
It will be very confusing, and require a lot of Googling or even AI, which
shouldn't be the case.
EXPECTED RESULT
When typing "sudo dnf " there should be a few suggestions under it, like "sudo
dnf install packagename" and "sudo dnf remove packagename".
In case the command is wrong (mostly due to distro hopping), it could should
the correct command, like "sudo apt-get install packagename" in case the user
is using Kubuntu.
That would make the terminal more flashy/intuitive for newcomers.
