> I'm not judging you, I know people that just like instant coffee better.

As a self-confessed coffee snob (who owns everything from a Aeropress to a French Press to you-name-it and gets freshly roasted beans from across the world which I hand grind at home), it's always a matter of contention for me when my sister visits home and PREFERS both the speed and the taste of nescafe instant coffee over my finely tweaked-over-the-years methods for making great coffee.

She's not in the computer science field, so the instant vs fresh coffee debate is our version of the Emacs vs Vim debate ;-)

oh, you're not really a snob until you roast your own beans and won't drink any others /s
FYI, that's the coffee equivalent of the one-of-a-kind mechanical keyboard with custom layout and custom QMK firmware with modal overlays.
