Honestly, some things can be done faster/as fast on GUI. So really just use whatever increases your productivity.

IMO GUIs are always faster when it’s something you’ve never used before, or use very infrequently.

CLI is better if you’re used to the task you’re doing, or automating things. But for infrequent tasks looking up the commands (or looking at old notes to find it) is very slow and rather annoying.

Moving files across several subfolder levels tends to be much faster on a GUI. Finding files is usually much faster via CLI, even when you have to look up again how to use the find command of your choice

Is there an instant GUI find tool on linux? find is very slow compared to using Everything on windows, and sorting results is really hard via CLI.

I don’t know about GUI tools, but:

Everything is so fast because it uses the index built into NTFS to find files by filename quickly, and NTFS is the definitive file system on Windows so it works everywhere.

On Linux, there isn’t really an index built into the filesystem - some might have that, but I don’t know about it. That said, plocate is a common tool that uses its own index. You have to update the database when files change (you’ll probably have a job doing that daily), but searching the index is very fast.
