I’ve started adopting the habit of putting “-rf” as the last argument to avoid accidentally deleting something before I’ve double-checked my input. Good luck, and may this never happen again.
I do exactly the same. It’s not foolproof but it’s better than nothing.
I remember, almost a decade ago, when I discovered that rm on mac didn’t accept flags as last arguments… I hope they changed that behavior
