Because terminal programs have limitations that limit the amount of annoying things programs can do.

The color scheme matches the color scheme I set. They cannot change the font size nor the the font. They cannot spawn windows that will steal focus. They can run inside tmux which has advantages for my workflow.

Hotkeys are a first class citizen and not an afterthought when it comes to terminal uis.

That being said, I don't hate GUIs. I just hate a lot of them for doing things that annoy me.
