I thought you were talking about just opening the drive to use it from the file browser.
I do actually have a drive I use for automated backups, but I just used the GUI to change the automount setting:
I guess that’s a little bit inconvenient, but its like 3 clicks, adding a step to something I had to do to set up some other software. Its not any more complicated than disabling sticky keys in Windows.
Except we’re not comparing it to disabling sticky keys, we’re comparing it to needing needing to follow an entire page’s worth of instructions, pressing secret key combinations and entering commands into the terminal, just so you can use your computer without it phoning home to the mothership. And that’s on top of the fact that the instructions are probably going to be different in a year since microsoft is deliberately fucking with you.
Sure, but you had to click on it first. It didn’t mount on boot.
