It's easier to type commands when you have to do it alot. It uses muscle memory rather than deplete your attention span. Might be difficult at first, but it's easier once you get used to it.
- Const-me 5y agoFor the use cases you’re talking about, I prefer keyboard shortcuts. No need to click search bar, or look at the search result list. One only needs to memorize, or setup, a keyboard shortcut like Ctrl+Shift+M, and with muscle memory it will consistently take well under 1 second. Search UX is slower, needs more clicks or key presses.
- ok_dad 5y agoIn vscode I press one set of keys and get fuzzy search access to every feature. I'd rather barely memorize the phrases to search with (several phrasing find the same settings for me) than to to memorize dozens of barely used hotkeys. Most of my day is scrolling through code and editing it occasionally, not doing actual commands from the menu or whatever. To each their own, however I can see how it would be annoying when they don't include a menu for anything for folks who prefer that.
