    Honestly, some things can be done faster/as fast on GUI. So really just use whatever increases your productivity.

      IMO GUIs are always faster when it’s something you’ve never used before, or use very infrequently.

      CLI is better if you’re used to the task you’re doing, or automating things. But for infrequent tasks looking up the commands (or looking at old notes to find it) is very slow and rather annoying.

        Moving files across several subfolder levels tends to be much faster on a GUI. Finding files is usually much faster via CLI, even when you have to look up again how to use the find command of your choice
