From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It's not terrible once you learn the muscle memory.
I'm sure there's some obscure key bind to go directly there, but I just do
Cmd+Shift+Gin Finder to get to the browse to path dialog, type~, and hit return.Still a stupid extra amount of work, but at least it's not having to use my mouse, typing
%USERPROFILE%, or having to type the absolute path. That would piss me off even more.It's just
Cmd+Shift+H(for Home). The shortcuts for many of the most common locations are extremely intuitive.Cmd+Shift+A(Applications)Cmd+Shift+D(Desktop)Cmd+Shift+L(~/Library)Cmd+Shift+C(Computer)
