I seem to be one of very few people that does not use shell aliases. I much prefer just using the reverse history search for previous commands instead. That way I don't have to remember what letter I picked for different things, just ctrl+r then partially type out the command and I can see what it will execute. Bonus that I don't need to set them up before hand and that I can edit them before executing them for those times when I need to do something slightly different.

I'm also in that camp. FZF is a life saver.
