I use magit on a daily basis. And I do use tig occasionally (I don't like lazygit). Most of my magit workflows only requires a handful of keys (most are only two keys). If you've not tried Magit before, it's like vim for a git repo. tig is more barebones, but I could quickly configure it to be able to do most of the magit tricks I need.

Git cli is tedious. But like all cli operations the goal is always to script your workflow or alias the most used commands in something shorter. I'm sure that jj may have an easier learning curve. But some people do know how git works and like the level of control over commits.
