Same here, I do think UNIX did some stuff right, but also did lots of stuff wrong (otherwise The UNIX-HATERS Handbook wouldn't even be a thing), and while the command line is useful for some tasks (which can also be done on a scripting language REPL), it is hardly something to settle life on.

We already have enough UNIX clones, and moved away from TUIs 40 years ago for a reason.

Yes, I have a personal unix haters list as well. And I also love the whole tech subculture to death.

Funnily enough, init.rc used to be on the top of it, as well as all the numerous process/job management gotchas. Systemd + control groups = step forward. Plan9-style fuse-based systems = step forward. Kernel data structures exposed as files = step forward. And so on.

CLI utils will probably have their place like forever, TUIs as well, with the main benefit being the ease of development and staying in the CLI context.
