Honestly the best bit is just not feeling the need to take my hand off the keyboard and use the mouse. I don't think I can quantify the time saved, but I can tell you I really notice when I'm using software that makes me have to switch.

It was revived in 2017. I think that's all that needs to be said on the matter.

If you like this kind of content, there are loads of YouTube channels doing these kinds of 'experiments' they tend to be more specialised, but that's a good thing and they often interact with each other to share expertise.

To some of these people the fact that they are rejected by most people just confirms how s have corrupted modern society and how awesome and special they are for being one of the chosen greats to see through it.

They mainline confirmation bias as if it is cheap heroin. Everything reinforces their world view.
