    I always thought apt and apt-get is the same thing so why type more when you can less?

    But then again, I’m a linux noob that only uses distros like Ubuntu.

    I also like the software center thing in Ubuntu because of GUI and… um… why do I see a bunch of people with pitchforks?

      apt is a newer tool that combines the functionality of apt-get and apt-cache. It’s not as backwards compatible but has a nicer more human readable output
