Have you tried GUI text editors? They're like the CLI ones, just from this millennium. We're no longer etching runes into rocks any more either.
Sometimes it's not so easy to fire up a GUI, like when you ssh into another machine.
CLI text editors have their specific use cases. For all other cases GUI ones (Kate, VSCode,...) exist.
Couldn't agree more. My use cases tend to be:
EMACS users sometimes add web browser and email client, among other things but, that's a bit further than I go. The perf for either of the main two blows nearly any GUI editor out of the water and being able to pipe stdout/stderr to them is just the wonderful cherry on top.

Well now I'm going to pronounce it gooey even harder!
"Graphical UI" it is
That's "graphical oowey", right? /s
I generally just say the letters; the amount of shit I get for saying gee en you...is not actually that much because I usually don't interact with coding nerds via voice, only text, but if I did they would be livid
Edit: For some reason I try to pronounce Xfce as a word instead of an initialism though, 'ecks-fiss'. Maybe I'm just broken.
Acceptable.
X forwarding is too much work
