I did from about 6th-9th grade. I pretty much just used ttys except for the odd google doc I would need to use a laptop for. I would just use my rpi model a for everything.

tmux was pretty much required for any work. I would use irc, w3m for internet browsing, mutt for email, and vim for programming.

I thought if I only used the terminal I would become very good at it, kind of true but I have never had the ability to use linux at work yet. I learned a lot more by breaking and fixing X once I got a machine faster than an RPI model A.

I don't recommend doing this, it was not worth it.
