New blogpost: "Using (only) a Linux terminal for my personal computing in 2024"
A write-up of my recent experiment of using only a Linux terminal for my personal computing.
tl;dr:
I had fun, and learned loads, so a success.
I could do a lot of what I wanted, quite comfortably and easily, I couldn't do enough.
I'll carry out using the terminal (as I have for years), but not exclusively.

Bullshit exclusives from Goebbels 2.0 will be a stain on your publication for ever."
