Watching my team member trouble shoot yesterday. Stops every 20 seconds to look up kubctl commands. After watching painfully for 15 minutes I show them freelens, a kube ide. They said they like command line because nobody using guis know shit. Again, they said this while having to keep the man page open.
I know kube, I wrote small contributions. I just don’t memorize or need every fucking describe out to json command. I have a giant fucking image with green yellow red dots and right click to shell in. I can see every fucking configmanp, namespace, etc on my screen.
Tldr, these folks are morons not good at their job.
Edit: Good Lord, look at the comments 🤣. Thank you fedverse for driving that nail home so perfectly. 2026, year of the Linux desktop.
There is no shortage of git beginners that refuse to use a GUI.
They ask for help for something, I haven’t used git CLI in years, so I tell them “go to this place and click those button”, then they open the vscode terminal and ask “but can I do it from CLI?” Okay then I go to search the command. Meanwhile I tell them to checkout a branch or something as basic as that and watch them struggle for way longer than it took me to find the command I was looking for.
I get that thousands of elitists have convinced you that using git from a GUI is a sin. But it’s fine, I won’t tell no one. I use a GUI myself.

Same thing with git.

I’m a creature of habit with git 🤣. I really only use 3 commands that are muscle memory though. But you bet your ass i merge on the GUI.
