Mine is: Don't waste time finding the "best" program for a particular task. Rather, find one that exposes keybindings for every action in the program, and then commit those bindings to muscle memory. This applies to: - design tools (Photoshop, Figma) - media-editing programs (GarageBand, whatever is used for video-editing these days) - unexpected places (e.g. Trello) The mouse has only 3-6 degrees of freedom to interact with. Only two digits on one hand operate a mouse. A keyboard has 50+ degrees of freedom, with all ten fingers available for usage. Anecdotally, companies that design software that can be exclusively used by a keyboard tend to think more highly of their customers.
