I'm glad folks are experimenting with different paradigms.

That said, Hacker News might not be the best audience for this informal survey. I'd wager at least 70% of the people reading this are still interacting with their computers using "strange terminal commands", by choice. We aren't representative of what normal people will use or prefer.

True, "strange terminal commands" gave me such a visceral reaction. "Its GUIs that are strange, with their strange buttons in different shapes and forms".

Just wait until the creators find out about those "strange languages" that people are still typing into computers to make software.

To clarify, we meant "strange" from the perspective of a new user, not that terminals are bad. GUIs made common actions visible and discoverable: you could point, click, and drag instead of already knowing the command and syntax.
