My visidata protip is using it as a pager for terminal database clients. I'm using it with mycli/MySQL right now but it should work with any client that lets you use a custom result pager. This setup has entirely replaced gui db clients which I've found to be consistently awful.

The same reason we might invest in traffic lights or stop signs even though cars regularly ignore them.
