    Plus, I’m a programmer and type <>, (), {}, and [] enough that I have them bound to non-shift keys. So even if we were counting keystrokes, it’d still be fewer than three on my keyboard.

        What, are you saying we’re counting one-time configuration costs? If so, the hundred or so configuration clicks are still utterly dwarfed by the tens of thousands of saved keystrokes. Statistical noise.

        Anyway, I ruined the joke by correcting the grammar. “Less than 3” is “<3”, whether it took a hundred keystrokes to type or not. “Fewer than three” breaks the joke.

          All previous clicks should be counted, including installing linux, opening firefox/a firefox fork and arguing with strangers only about how many clicks are needed to type “<3”
