These certainly aren't forgotten, but I like: * `ranger` file manager: https://ranger.github.io/ https://ranger.github.io/ * `ncdu` for visualising disk usage: https://dev.yorhel.nl/ncdu https://dev.yorhel.nl/ncdu * `htop` process monitor: https://htop.dev/ https://htop.dev/ I just find them very intuitive, and information-dense while not being overwhelming.

Some alternatives: * `vifm` file manager, more powerful and performant than ranger, for those who lean towards vim keybindings: https://vifm.info/gallery.shtml https://vifm.info/gallery.shtml * `btop` process monitor, for those who like eye candy: https://github.com/aristocratos/btop?tab=readme-ov-file#main-ui-showing-details-for-a-selected-process https://github.com/aristocratos/btop?tab=readme-ov-file#main...

`ncdu` is the single best tool I've ever found for tracking down high-disk-usage directories deep in the filesystem. Run it with the `-x` flag to prevent it from crossing mounts.

  Better than the kdirstat/windirstat family?

  Wow, thanks for the pointer, finding it super useful right now to see what's taking so much space in my backups

A very good alternative to ranger is lf https://github.com/gokcehan/lf https://github.com/gokcehan/lf It's a lot faster in all aspects, has mostly the same features and is pretty much a standalone binary. edit: an even more minimal alteranative is nnn https://github.com/jarun/nnn https://github.com/jarun/nnn
