Disclaimer: I tried searching for something like “useful programs”, “useful packages”, “useful tools”, “recommended packages”, etc. Don’t see any posts like that, if this is a duplicate, then it’s not intentional and my search skills have failed me.
Anyway, I was watching a YT video today and the guy launched a cool program in his terminal, I paused to see what he was running. It was btop, of course being new I never heard about it. Then I thought – how many cool tools/packages are there, which people use, but I am not aware of?
So what do you like? What do you install on a fresh install? What are the most useful tools in your belt? What can’t you live without on Linux?
Perhaps I’ll find something useful :)
Neofetch is a command line tool that prints your system information in the terminal, it is the standard way to let everyone know you’re using arch
Just FYI , neofetch is dead/archived, though it still works afaik.
Here’s an article on it
Oh, yeah. I installed fastfetch, not sure which one is better/newer.
There’s also
zigfetch, but that doesn’t have aNixlogo :/Reminded me that I messed that up somehow when I swapped from bash to zsh. Neofetch no longer prints my system info and I forgot about trying to fix it 😔
