  • Here are some useful programs I use:

    console utilities/programs:

    • zoxide: memorizes which directories you cd into, so you can later type shorthands for them

    • procs: modern replacement for the ps command. basically lists your processes

    • neofetch/fastfetch: displays your system info in a fancy way. 99% Linux users use that

    • inxi: displays detailed system info but in a less fancy way. people usually attach the output of inxi -Fxz to a forum post where they need help troubleshooting

    • asciinema: cool program that records your terminal sessions as text files

    • agg: converts asciinema recordings to gif

    • yt-dlp: insanely powerful youtube downloader (remember to only download things you are permitted to!)

    • sl: ragebait when you misspell ls

    • yazi: fancy file manager with image previews! minimal or no configuration required

    • cava: audio visualizer. when you press f it cycles colors!

    • htop/btop: you already mentioned. task managers basically

    • ncdu: interactively shows disk usage per file

    GUI apps:

    • qalculate: very powerful calculator (has both qt and gtk frontends)

    • gparted: probably the best gui disk management tool so far

    • localsend: send files locally over wifi direct

    • blueman: gui bluetooth manager

    • freetube: awesome youtube client (NOTE: against youtube terms of use!)

    • baobab: gui disk usage analyzer

    • cheese: photo taking app with funny effects
