I always love reading about.peoples set ups. The overall gist of this is that emacs provides the utilities you need and can run shell commands etc so you don't actually need a terminal if you go that route.

Which I guess is, fine? But, it means if you want a tui tool for something like, interactive with git or files easier. You have to choose from emacs plugins- that feels limiting in a way that isn't needed? Like, sure there are emacs plugins for got, but having a terminal based workflow means you can choose from (or develop) more options.

You can't tell from the title, but this is an article singing the praises of emacs, not really about terminal emulators.
