I wonder if this is more common among Linux users. If an application has good keyboard support, I'm ALL over that instead of using a mouse. That's one reason web applications really annoy me, they usually have terrible keyboard support, or the browser shortcuts interfere.

Maybe detest is too strong a word. More like I prefer to avoid it if at all possible (unless it's something like CAD or most gaming where the mouse is basically essential)

i use my linux desktop for gaming so i really rely on the mouse.

but i exclusively use the nipple on my thinkpad to the point i can't use a regular trackpad anymore.

touchscreens are the worst.
