I think that's a fair question. It seems that people want more keyboard navigation and (sometimes) monospace UIs, but that should be perfectly feasible in a web UI.

OK so how would this work? Say I'm doing filesystem operations, using git etc, and I want to do something related to that with an interactive UI. How do I "get from" the terminal into a web UI? Or am I doing filesystem operations and using git etc in the web UI from the start?

Everybody has their own personal itch. It will not stop -- even after they get to stylesheets. Some people may not remember this, but there was a time when browsers were also simple.

I believe the relevant saying here is, "normies ruin everything". Now that LLMs have allowed them to breach the command line, "Chrome, here we come!"

Son of a motherfucking bitch.
