    As a Linux user of 5 years, I like doing things with the GUI first, and then falling back to terminal if/when shit fucks up. It’s such a great tool.

      Which is funny because I’m the other way around. I’ll try doing something with the CLI but if it’s like a calculation or something and I can’t figure it out with awk, etc, I’ll defer to a spreadsheet.

      As a Linux user of 10 years, sometimes I don’t touch the terminal for months, sometimes I use it every day, depends on what I’m doing. I haven’t done a lot of programming this year so I haven’t used the terminal a lot; but when playing with my microcontrollers and SBCs I use the terminal almost constantly.

      One thing I will note is that I use the keyboard a lot more than I did when I daily drove Windows. I run my computer by muscle memory a lot more than I used to.
