@mhoye People who are using those kinds of services ARE sysadmins though, pretty much by definition!

I do tend to think there's too much fear of the command-line in general though. Computers operate on streams of bits, making the CLI a more natural interface to work with the machine itself. And there's no standards for GUI shit. If something goes wrong I'm gonna be spending half an hour just trying to figure out where the hell this thing writes its fucking log files (assuming it writes any at all...or maybe it writes to five different places!) instead of just reading the error off the console...I don't need complex visualizations to install a piece of software, I need to give a command and get a response.

There is still something to be said for making *good* CLI experiences though lol
