I disagree on GitHub Desktop.

The whole point of the UI is so that your workflow is simplified without having to understand the exact inner workings of it all.

GHDesktop’s simplicity means that most of time I don’t have to call 4 commands to just check out a new repository or PR because one click runs all those 4 commands and more.

As simple as it is, lately I rarely have to use the CLI (which however I still use because I rebase and fixup)

The fact that “takes you away from the terminology” sounds like people complaining that Windows 95 users don’t know what MKDIR means: That’s the whole point of UIs.

So you're fine with not understanding what are you doing.

This sounds ominious.
