all the best, let me add a recommendation - mc a.k.a. midnight commander - you'll wonder why you used a gui file manager after using it

I have been trying to/considering going full console as well, so I really appreciate the contributions from everyone here!

I have a question though! Are there any "office" packs for console anymore? I like to do spreadsheets of stuff and a console would be epic for this, typing tools as well.

A little input tidbit, in my search for console things, I found i3 which is a Linux WM, that is based on a console first, tiling system, basically ignoring the mouse. Most of it's tools is configured or even directly used from a console.

I am thinking about going terminal only. however I don't know how could I achieve it since I need some GUI apps for work and university. for IRC I could use weechat which would work fine but what about youtube,telegram,github? there is no way I could use them inside terminal. but what I could do is use as much terminal as I can!
