You gotta admit, it's fun to meme the opposite camp. Whether you are a GUI or CLI person.

    But you look way cooler when using the terminal for most of your stuff 💁‍♂️ also using a riced out window manager and riced out Vim config for which you spent hundreds of hours on customizing every aspect of it :p normal people don't know what the fuck is going on on your pc so you can feel instantly feel superior to those normies! Ah also btw i use arch ;)

    I use both. I use the CLI for a lot of stuff but I also use the GitHub Desktop fork for Linux lol. I don't care how powerful git is in CLI, that gui is just so nice imo

    It took me forever to realize I could edit config files in a graphical text editor. When you have a really long file it's just nicer to have properly formated text wrapping and a scrollbar with a preview box.

    Exactly. Use the tools you have the way they fit you best. If it aids your work flow learn the CLI commands you use the most. If it's something obscure or rarely used, use the gui.

    Another not mentioned benefit of becoming comfortable with using the cli is that you then can more easily script stuff.
