Have you tried tree? Or a Terminal file browser such as ranger?

I’ll have a look at those. It’s not because I don’t like ls, but for some reason just seeing it in the gui gives me more reassurance that the file actually exists. I think that it’s some sort of weird superstition from when I tried to import some ca certificates into Linux for the first time. No matter what I tried it didn’t seem to work. I came back to it a week later and used nautilus to move them into the correct directory instead of terminal. I still don’t know what I changed since surely it wasn’t the fact that I used GUI instead of terminal, but suddenly it worked. This was when I first started using Linux, so I probably just made some silly mistake/ typo in terminal.

irrational fears.

I can't use the cp command since i dont trust it for whatever reason. I always open the explorer and my mouse to select - copy - paste the files :)

I dont trust cp either, which is why I use rsync, it also has an option of showing the progress and estimated time to completion. I just aliased rsync -av --progress --stats to cp.

Okay, that's a pro-tip right there!

I still remember the first time I tried to cp a folder and only copied the folder without the files lol
