So just to be clear I went with a very lazy move to linux from windows. I was not looking to use my day to day in a unixy type way and wanted something that I can install and go without much muss or fuss. So I went with zorin and yeah I have dropped to the command line for some apt installs or such but bascially it was only as needed. Very minimal. Anyway today Im messing with folders and files and suddenly it hit me. Im on linux I can do a lot of this easier with the command line. I know its stupid but my day to day sorta has a mouse brain guie mode and I sorta forget how much easier it is to do some stuff using syntax. So going forward im going to be bringing up the command line to do the things that are quicker.

EDITED - guys I have used command line for years. before there even was a gui. Im trying to say I grew out of the habit but using linux at home is getting me back into it.

    I would recommand zellij instead of tmux or screen. For the simple fact that by default, shortcuts are sensible and the most important ones are always on screen.

    It is not as venerable as the other 2, but much more easy to get into.

        If it works for you. I have heard the advantage of screen is that you can bind directly to a Pty/serial. Would be nice for me since I sometimes needs to connect as serial instead of SSH.
