I'm curious whether there are people who do all their computing, or part of it, without a GUI at all. That is, just plain Text Mode. While I use a GUI mostly, there are times I just want to discard the GUI and switch to the Framebuffer and just use text mode. Its not just for 'retro' reasons, but having a purely text based set up does reduce distraction! The fact that nothing else is visible (except the TMUX modeline) and nothing else is going on, just creates a different experience, one more conducive to single minded focus. The mental map of what is going on is different, cleaner. Just want to hear other peoples thought, whether they find this too.
