    I'm old, so I used a real ASR 33 (tty) for work and editing my program source on a timesharing system, shared between say 100 programmers using say 3 x 10 ASR-33's). The ASR 33 worked at a whopping 10 chars/sec, fortunately 1 year later we got a synchronous display terminal (24 lines of 80 chars) and say 16 displays shared one 9600 bps line (1200 chars/sec). After completing the program source or its change, you started a batch job for compiling and linking the program. If you're lucky the batch job would run within an hour. If you're unlucky you got the results back next morning. The computer had 512 KB of fast core memory (1 MHz) and 2 MB of slow core memory (400 KHz), but it had a real 32 bits CPU (Philips P1400) and not a fake 32 bits calculating at 2 x 16 bits (P1200) or 4 x 8 bits (P1100). Those were the days .........

    Worth mentioning: tty12, if your distro set up journal/syslog redirection. You don't get a login prompt, just the system logs output; useful if the graphical desktop is unresponsive.
    Also useful on ttys: the magic SysRq menu. Hold Alt, and keep holding it; press SysRq key. You're now in the Linux kernel's emergency menu, as long as you keep holding Alt. Press H to see the help message, showing what commands are available. Most people just memorize the mnemonic "REISUB", or just "EISUB". The "R" steals the keys processing from Xorg, or any other process that thinks they own the keyboard. "E" and "I" to send a terminate signal to all processes, so they can stop gracefully, followed by a kill signal to end any one that didn't terminate voluntarily. "S" to sync all buffered data to storage devices; "U" to unmount all filesystems and remount them as read-only; and "B" to reboot. This is how you "gracefully" reboot an unresponsive Linux system, minimizing data loss and filesystem corruption.

    I'm pretty sure the display manager being on tty1 is the same on debian, and it lets you easily log in as a different user graphically (and simultaneously). Very handy if you're someone who utilises multiple user IDs for various stuff. I didn't realise it wasn't default behaviour. Maybe it's a gnome (gdm) thing?

    Just yesterday I was grinding my brain cells on why virtualbox reserved tty1 for itself-turns out it wasn't virtualbox-I just didn't realize that during boot tty was being inconspicuously changed from 1 to 7 as lightdm started itself on tty7 instead of the normal tty1 systemd, the kernel and everything else started on. Now upon retrospect I'll admit knowing more about the boot process would've probably saved me from a whole lot of googling about virtualization.

    It is important to know what a TTY is on the road to Arch Linux, because you're going to be living in one for the install process. I'd also like to mention that you can move between the TTY's be using ALT+the arrow keys. This moves you over a single TTY which is nice if you want to jump back and forth quickly, like say between your active command line and the Arch Install Guide.

    • @EnFuego79

      Found the answer, the vert-manager shell that qemu runs in has a tiny little drop down menu that appears when you hover in the upper center of the VM window. Clock on the little keyboard, and it will reveal the key commands outlined in this video. The caveat is that you click on them with the mouse. If you try with your keyboard you host will intercept it and drop you into tty on your host.

      @@grimfistgaming7694 I guess one of the issues is that people who choose Manjaro because it is so easy to install and set up are hardly likely to be checking out the Arch wiki because Arch is a 'lot' harder lol :) I only found out about TTY after falling foul in an update and following all the comments. I think it was actually mentioned by Phil Mueller (?) himself. If what we are both intimating is actually true, in my opinion it should be noted in a 'number' of places in Manjaro so people are more aware. Just my opinion of course :)

    tty13 is my graphical, tty1-11 are available tty, tty12 for syslog.
    Why outside regular keyboard range?
    I never seen to need to change back to graphical, just out of it, and alt+arrowkey changes between them, too

    I just watched a recent video from you where you have decided to start updating in TTY because of some recent issues with updates in the GUI. I love that there was an old video I could look at to learn more about TTY from you. Thanks DT!

    Something I'm confused about having been a user of both Manjaro and Architect Linux is that TTY-1 does not take me to display manager like you showed us on Ubuntu. It also doesn't present me with a text login prompt. All I see on TTY-1 are the kernel messages that were scrolling by when the machine booted up. So what exactly is TTY-1 on Manjaro?

      You should try out mpv. For video playback it's a lot more versatile than vlc

    If you can make a video for fuzzy finder (fzf) for terminal and vim because it will help all the command line users and i think it will be very interesting video.

    Back in the early days some people advocated running your games in a separate tty for performance.
    And people were more aware of tty because we were greeted by the terminal when starting Linux (with a phrase of the day if I remember?) and had to start X manually. There is something about the terminal I cannot pinpoint but it feels like riding a motorcycle rather than driving a car.
