i've been learning sc-im. I love spreadsheets for finance and tracking all kinds of personal data. Previously used google sheets... It's a slow transition but one I could see myself sticking to.

I like CMus. It's a simple CLI music player. Does everything I need it to do and nothing to piss me off.

cowsay is better than any gui talking cow app I've tried.

IMO GUI=TUI, so I'll be talking about actual cli.

Anything involving file management. (for me, plan9 utils)
Anything involving version control. (git,hg,etc)
Text editing (for me, ed is the one superior to gui)
Program installation/package management (make; brew)
Video manipulation (ffmpeg)
Multimedia playing (i.e. I prefer mpv file than using open in program menu)
IRC (ii, coreutils)
Document making (troff)
Transmission-cli

pacman > any GUI store
ranger > everything except maybe dolphin

cmus > everything except foobar2k
vim+latex > emacs, word etc
also irssi, mutt (although mutt is kinda arguable too)

Not better, but elinks is actually really good.
I used only CLI for a few days and the number of websites that work well with it surprised me. Sometimes it was better than in Firefox (don't have to load or render lots of stupid graphics), usually the worst thing about it was having to scroll past a few pages of links that are usually in dropdown boxes. I do have a few complaints with elinks, like not being able to save open tabs and quit, but I like it.
Shame it hasn't been updated since 2012 or so. Do any other CLI browsers compare?
