Trying to discover new/unheard Linux desktop programs (Sorry for the confusion).

Edit: I apologise for confusing a lot of people. I meant Linux desktop “programs” coming from Windows/Mac. I'm used to calling them “apps”.

Edit: 🙌 I’m overwhelmed with the great “programs” people have recommended in the comment section. Thank you guys.

I mostly use terminal unironically. Duf (to check system storage) Youtube-tui (written in rust tui for youtube) Btop (for system management) Iftop (see where my pc is calling to) Tuptime (has full system uptime from install to now. It just for fun to see how long my system has been alive)

Ive also gotten into atuin to find command i used and cant remember the command.

Also obligatory Megalist of terminal apps

tuptime: I’ve been looking for something like this

YouTube-tui is so good but it crashes in kitty and it's image protocols are not that good. There's a rewrite going on. Wish it would fix it.

If you build from github it works in kitty and crashes if you scroll to fast. It kinda works, hope they rewrite it

yeah I know. It's super irritating, cause kitty image protocol is one of the best but the author hasnt properly acknowledged the issue yet.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
