Sorry that I'm not used to having all windows in the same context, differently sized by default, needing to manually arrange them again and again to do anything.

I hate stacking WMs, especially Windows.

Watching my partner play a FPS game has the same energy

But on the flip side. If you tell somebody something they don't know like:

'You can open links in new tabs by klicking on them with the mouse wheel.'

Or

'You can reopen closed tabs by pressing Ctrl+Shift+T'

They look at you like you've just shown them the meaning of life. Bonus points if you see them using it later.

Man, 2 weeks into an IT job, we're doing a presentation and our VP of IT accidentally closed a tab. Felt like a wizard being the only person in the room, somehow, who knew that hotkey.

I had to watch someone use emacs today.

did they have a foot pedal?

I told them to run git rebase -i, and they never configured their $EDITOR or their git editor, so it opened in vim and I had to intervene.
