I hate IDEs. I’m sure I’m not the only one. Graphical interfaces are not optimal compared composable command line interfaces, nor is the mouse/trackpad an ergonomic input device.
It's not a matter of mere preference when using non-ergonomic devices results in debilitating injury (carpal tunnel syndrome) which prevents me from working.
I for example detest opaque keyboard shortcuts and prefer a mouse or trackpad. I still get plenty of work done so it’s optimal for me.
