Personally, GitExtensions... github desktop is a pile of turds but git CLI introduces unnecessary stress precisely when I don't want it.

Yup. I don't care if my workflow is suboptimally slow, I can easily see exactly I'm doing with git extensions.

The GitHub CLI is magic.

Well one runs on Linux and the other doesn't so....

Fork is much better than GitHub Desktop, you can use it without paying indefinitely
