Some terminal frustrations

A few weeks ago I ran a terminal survey (you can read the results here) and at the end I asked: What’s the most frustrating thing about using the terminal for you? 1600 people answered, and I decided to spend a few days categorizing all the responses. Along the way I learned that classifying qualitative data is not easy but I gave it my best shot. I ended up building a custom tool to make it faster to categorize everything. As with all of my surveys the methodology isn’t particularly scientific.

Agreed. Would love to see a follow-up with more recent numbers.

I'm not sure the conclusion holds for smaller teams. Would be interesting to see this broken down by company size.
