No wonder we don't get better GUIs if people keep turning the terminal into a religion.

for me, it's less 'still' and more 'again'. claude code + API tokens means i no longer have to suffer the user-hostile design of many webpages. using full-screen claude code feels like finding my old DOS teddy from childhood buried in the back of a closet.

terminal is the only way for me... 100% control year after year.

Absolutely!

Me too, because a lot of storage infrastructures need terminal.

Doesn't everyone?

No. I prefer a GUI for anything that isn't going to be scripted (which is to say, most tasks that I do). Easier to work in, and much more discoverable than a CLI.
