I’m a decade+ linux power user and I still do insane things like pipe outputs into vim so I can copy paste without having to remember tmux copy paste modes when I have vertical panes open.

Terminal UX existed before the CUA guidelines from IBM. People complains about Ctrl + Shift + C behavior when it exists only in one category of application, terminal emulators.

Age doesn't matter, usability and consistency does, so that's a valid complaint towards all those hostile apps that haven't changed the defaults

This is why Apple gave Macs a command key in 1984. Control is for sending control cides; command is for issuing commands!

This is the kind of thing why I still prefer Windows as a UI.

Plan 9 fixes this.
