alt Hacker NewsI'm glad the fad of TUIs are dying, I don't get the hype of them.
We just need better, efficient and faster GUIs to put these TUIs to an end.
Take a look at gpgui and glaze leading on this. There should be no reason to use TUIs anymore.
It is time to move on from using this arcane technology from the 60s-70s.

I think, firstly, we need less meaningless red-tape shenanigans from MS/Apple to publish GUI apps

Well, yeah, it just that those GUIs failed to appear for at least 30 years.

You mean the GUIs? They were being in development since the early 70s, you know, but they really have flourished in the 80s. So, it's already a 40-years-old paradigm that still haven't managed to displace another contemporary paradigm of TUIs. Well, who knows, maybe in 40 more years it'll make it.

I clicked. Never trust a gui library without screenshots.
I'll never quit building TUIs, though. I'm building more TUIs now than ever, with AI assistance making it easy.
