You’re missing out if you like TUI apps and window managers, most of them use Vim commands

@@tylerdean980 I still haven't left KDE Plasma. But if I ever do, I might... maybe... possibly... learn VIM

One of us, one of us

Learning vim was even more life-changing than switching to Linux in my experience. I couldn't recommend it more

@Data Muddler based on your username, I believe you. My use case would not be improved by learning VIM. For me, it would be tantamount to "I use Arch, BTW". I see its value, and, if I get bored, I'll tackle it. But for the next few years, I got too many other things that are more important to my career that I still need to master.

No. Time shift is good.

incron is also nice to know - do stuff if files change

cronie works wonders on systemd, and is installed by default on a ton of different distros, so IDK what you're talking about there. Now on non-systemd distros, cron is a bit more complicated, but not too bad

@@TheLinuxCast beat me to it. On top of that, you can use cron with user applications as well as root. Me thinks this guy needs a solid tutorial video in his life. I wonder where he might find one of those...🤔

Sailfish OS? I was thinking, I'm the only one backing up photos on phone with rsync :)

@@slalomsk8er397 LineageOS with termux. You are not the only one who uses phones for backups. Though I use only old phone that stays home for backups. But on both I use sshfs to mount their storage locally for easy access

@@oalfodr I feel like I've met two of my own kind in the wild. And sshfs is the best.

@@anon_y_mousse Mounting remote stuff is super convinient. I also often mount archives with archivemount instead of extracting

@@oalfodr I usually just browse with less, but I'll have to give that a try too.

The CLI will never die, you do you.

i notice neither of you talking about moving/mirroring things from the CLi into the gui. i too love archaic things...i can carve stone quire well.....i guess ill put something important on stone and never let it be moved to the modern methods of communications....im sure thatll survive and grow and make a real impact

"CLI is faster" is common thing said.... NOT when its not used.... i dont think CLI should die.....I also dont think i should need a hand crank to start my car in 2023

@@kazzxtrismus What do you mean by moving or mirroring things from the CLI into the GUI? Do you mean the GUI copying interface elements from CUI apps? If that's the case, there are quite a few GUI apps that use vim movement keys. For instance, the PDF viewer that I use, okular, uses vim movement keys, as well as all the other expected things so not just vim movement keys. If that's not the kind of thing you mean, then clarify.

@@yozul1 its not useful to not have an option feature or capability NOT IN the GUI..its not useful because normal people dont use the terminal or CLI.... huge swaths of the linux community are stuck in the dark ages of computing holding on desperately and arrogantly to the idea that terminal is a viable interface for anyone not an autist.... half of what could possibly be bragged about for linux will never see the light of day... the CLI crutch is the bubonic plague dark ages disease of linux.... propping up lazy developers who prefer to half finish (less than half) a project and call it good enough and let the rest of the world considder linux a substandard out of date backwards and archaic system not fit for public consumption.... CLI is a disgusting fetish religion the rest of the world has rejected outright blatantly and firmly...you drag linux down with your profession of its value while allowing the rest of the system to go without a GUI... CLI / terminal is the domain of the sweaty greasy basement dwelling socially rejected. have a shave and a shower put some clothes on and put a GUI on it like a civilized person
