I've made a pretty successful career out of just a terminal and vim, which drives 95% of what I do work wise. I only need the browser for slack, zoom and jira.

And jira I could interact with through vim/emacs if I really hated myself. Slack and zoom I mostly view as distractions from work.

It honestly would make sense for me to use my laptop for browser-based work and be entirely terminal-only with my workstation. Lots of people like us still exist in the workplace. I'm not even 40 yet.

Same here! Under 40, and have been using debian, bash and vim for over 25 years in both my private and professional life (as a python dev). Oh and weechat for libera IRC of course ;)
