Damnit, it's been years! How could you...
There's a lot of value in using an IDE, from just general formatting stuff to being able to tell what class functions do without having to dig into the class itself. Not to mention autocomplete.
There's lots of free solutions out there now, so if you're curious I'd give it a shot. I think you'll find once you start using one it'll be hard to go back to just a plain text editor.
I like vs code a lot, if you're looking for specific recommendations. It's lightweight and can be upgraded to do pretty much anything via extensions.
I mentioned this in another post, but tmux is awesome
Kinda hard not to be when most people never expect anything good to ever happen again.
If you've ever played Myst, which was a point and click puzzle game from the late 80's early 90's, it basically adds the mechanics of that world into the game. The main thing is writing books that describe places that you can actually visit like a pocket dimension.
Oh my God I knew I did it before somehow! I was starting to think I just imagined it because the button was never there again. So helpful, thank you!
Kinda new to the whole sysadmin thing, but tmux has been an absolute game changer for me. No more remote desktop for long running processes, I can just do everything from ssh.

The main thing about them is that the rule of those communities is that you must post something before you leave, could be anything which is why it seems so random.
