ffmpeg is one of the things where I prefer the CLI. It’s crazy powerful, and does some insane things in pretty simple commands. I’ve seen a meme that says half the internet is just wrappers for ffmpeg, and I’m inclined to agree.

Also, as an arch user (btw) pacman / AUR are a much better experience than having to hunt down the installers for everything online.

Similarly, the right CLI tools make searching for files across my entire computer much simpler and way faster than I could ever do with a GUI
