Thanks to you, I have finally completely switched to Linux.
BTW Love your videos, Keep up the good work!
I love the terminal its like being naked but with a good gun... is so minimalistic and powerful at the same time.
omg lol
it's the best interface if you have keyboard driven workflow
edit: I meant CLI :D
That's a strange comparison. Guns are really useless unless you like to kill someone. The Terminal on the other side can help you in so many ways. Maybe a big pocket knife with all it's functionality like screw driver, knife, scissors, magnifier, toothpick, ... would be a better comparison.
It's also extremely fast once all of those shortcut keys get into your muscle memory.
The only place I have Windows 10 installed is on my work-issued laptop and I find it totally unusable now - I use it for 30 minutes each week for a timesheet app, otherwise all my other work is on a Linux laptop via a web portal. Windows 10 is the first Windows OS to slow down my productivity, it is complete rubbish once you've got used to the terminal.
@@Duconi its a joke dude... americans love guns more than linux thats why hahaha
tmux is the one tool I can no longer live without in terminal.
Also, some htop alternatives: glances, bpytop
another great htop alternative is bashtop.
@@thebeesknees2473 bpytop is just the python port of bashtop (same dev)
guys guys stop wiith all the *top alts. Install netdata and thank me later.
htop, bpytop, bashtop and glances are all the cli monitoring p*rn you need. Mentioning ranger, don't forget about the awesome Midnight Commander, can live without those two panes.
alao btm (bottom), which is htop in rust
ncdu - my personal favorite utility. glad to see you included it :D
Checkout dust (enhanced du in rust)
Do you know what terminal he used in this video
@@invincibleparadox8934 Konsole
baobab for the gui addicts ;-)
I'd add bpytop (install using pip), MC (midnight commander - good for left/right transfers), lftp (a console ftp/SFTP/FTPS client which can do things like multi-part concurrent downloading which is a HUGE improvement in performance on networks that restrain single stream downloads). I also use GNU Screen which is great for allowing you to maintain a session and reconnect to it if you time out or get disconnected.
Love your videos man very relaxed voice inspiring no doubt!
Had no idea this speed reader app was a thing. Thanks making it known! I’ll use it for my studies as well.
How to install it?? I can't
Enjoyed, learned some new things
You’ve helped me more than anyone with Linux software, joined Patreon.
Didn't know about ncdu. Thanks for introducing us to it.
My favourite is ranger.
Thanks this was an amazing quick video that highlighted useful software.
1. moc - music player
2. z in zsh - for quick navigation to previous folders
That ranger and the ncdu ... wow! Thanks a lot for sharing!
Very nice video and useful user comments too! Thanks!
Thanks for this, it's funny I'm coming from a strictly GUI loving windows n00b for decades and I'm now absolutely a lunatic about the terminal, i use it so much now i forgot I had a mouse lol
The power of piping everything everywhere. Why? Because i can! Mwahah
same. terminal is so lovely gui is 🤢
You can also use your mouse at the terminal
@Bobby Bologna This is what I aspire to! I'm still a newb to the terminal but I love the lack of distractions that it can afford (and some fantastic distractions of it's own lol, cmatrix -lolcat is pretty!)
I hate using a mouse on PC too, feels inefficient to take my hand away from keyboard unless it's for coffee! ☕
@@Karla_Finch-Cluffhow are your aspirations coming along?
Wow!! Ranger is so cool! I love it :D it’s so convenient too bc I don’t have to type out the directory or whatever. Usually I open a file manager or whatever and click and drag to get the directory, this is awesome.
Thx Man! It's very useful!
Cool man. Thank you very much for the ncdu. I barely found out useful program for calculate disk usage.
Very Nice...Love your vídeos...regards from Brazil.
pwgen (password generator) and gnuplot (plotting data) are both very useful. As ubuntu user I use screenfetch from the official universe as alternative for neofetch.
Ranger is my favourite. Very useful. I subscribed
Thanks for the video, these are useful!
Just installed ncdu because of you! Thank you very much!
Thank you for the video. I am gratuful for your time and contribution. Kind regards, Akira.
Very cool video! Can't wait to see your channel blow up 😁
Thanks for the great tips! I have seen some of these displayed, but didn't know what they were....grin
Nice, I didn't know you could customize htop like that
My contributions:
- Bashtop is like htop, just looks a bit more fancy
- fzf, just amazing. Add the fzf plugin to zsh and get some nice extra functionality also
- bat, it's like cat but with syntax highlighting
- most, it's like more, but with.... syntax highlighting, you can make it your pager
- lsd replaces ls, and gives you filetype icons and colors
- fd is faster than find
And the most important of all: cowsay
Just.... no words :)
Not sure those fit in this category, but are also terminal based: pandoc, rsync, rclone, neomutt
bpytop is just like bashtop, but a bit more fancy again and is also more efficient
@@henryyoo3032 Very similar do bashtop! Very nice! Thank you for the suggestion!
Noice 🎉
My neofetch is piped through cowsay. also, figlet is a must have utility
holy shit, hadn't seen many of these suggestions before the video, very useful, Thank you!
Awesome video! thank you
Your bonus empress me so I sub u :) thnkuu for this vidio❤️
I'm a little surprised to see you running the sneakers command and then *not* pressing a key. "sneakers" doesn't *just* display some encrypted text, but if you press a key it will "decrypt" the text live on your screen!
great tips, thank you! ;)
Nice video
❤️ from Goa
1:19 it supports the vim movement style too ! for me that's the biggest advantage for it over midnight commander
I like cmus a lot. I don't know if it would entirely qualify as a terminal application, but it's a very nice and minimal music player that is sorta controlled from the terminal
I have become 100% dependent on cmus and ranger. I don’t even use any other filemanager any longer.
nnn is what I'm currently using, it's just a tad bit faster and I really like it.
(ncdu) this command is awesome ...
I subscribe in your channel because you give me awesome things about linux that I don't know oftenly .... so big thank you .. 👍
Cool, thanks! I didn't know about ncdu; I've always just used du. If I made a video like this, I would have included byobu.
I’m a new Linux user, just ditched windows. I love terminal! I hope to learn much more about it!
5:50 about neofetch
If you write "neofetch--ascii_distro " and than the name of needed distro, it'll write a special art for your distro
I have KDE and it shows default Ubuntu logo.
If I write "neofetch--ascii_distro kubuntu" it will show the kubuntu logo.
Or I can just write arch if I want,
if you write neofetch --help
You'll find more about it, and once found about which distros are avaluable. You can even write andoid or windows (?)
Really helped to find good tools
Thank you, great information. Have you tried Midnight Commander (mc)?
Thanks for Ranger, bro!
thanks for the video ranger and ncdu was really helpfull
Hi, thank you for sharing this tips. : )
6:00 Man, that is some beefy machine
If you use ctrl-z, that just pauses the program in the background. You can then type bg to unpause the program in the background, and we will see any text it creates in the current terminal, to get back to the program type fg to bing it to the forground. You can type jobs to see the programs paused or ru ning in background. You can pick which program you want back in the forground by typing the job number after the fg command.
I am using centos on VMware for school but your videos have shown me the fun side of Linux. I will be installing Pop!_OS
as my daily OS now!
Dual boot
@@slenplayz1400 I'm not a fan of that haha, got two laptops tho
you should have been around for the good 'ol days with gnome2 at its best and the 3d compiz cube! FIrst time I saw that, I deleted my windows box and never went back.
Thanks for your cooperation.Sir
1. Emacs
2. Great Tool
3. Emacs
4. Emacś
5. Nice Tool, switch between htop and top.
6. Emacs
7. Emacs.
Thank you for the awesome content! I loved your terminal color theme can you share it with us?
My 2 favorite terminal commands of late are.... (1) LSD (a LS replacement) and (2) MICRO (a text editor). LSD color codes file lists with icons showing file types. MICRO is nice because it gives you Pluma-like text editor for the terminal.
exa is best ls replacement
Loved ncdu! I installed on all my linux machines.
WOW! The way I work, editing, updating html text xml. Ranger is AWESOME this will save me tons of time and reduce mistakes!
Ranger is Amazing! Thank you!
A few months back I threw together a Hollywood-like Bash script with the hacking scenes from Wargames running in one window, complete with robotic voice.
I have come here by accident. Very good!
First thing that I install on new system is MC. I learned file system with NC in DOS and with WC (TC now) in Windows ;)
Talking about `htop` - try `glances` - this one is really cool.
If you are Windows user using Powershell and Python, you actually can run some of those apps, like ranger, youtube-dl, trash-cli, neofetch, and ntop (replacement for htop).
Great tips!!!
Thank you 👍🏼
Thanks for this video I'm gonna try to learn ranger.
after reinstaling linux on other laptop and checking your content I say is coool and is working , off course after sudo apt install hollywood , and other .... but thenx
ps . from croatia with love
this....this is actually frickin useful.
Ranger seems really interesting, gonna check it out.
Nice video!
For youtube-dl, it makes the most sense to use pip to install it and to keep it up to date (a new version comes out often).
sudo pip install youtube-dl ... sudo pip install --upgrade youtube-dl
Thanks for the tip!
It always drives me crazy when youtube-dl stops working.
Seems that Ubuntu doesn't always package the latest version.
Better do it this way:
$ sudo curl -L yt-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl -o /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
$ sudo chmod a+rx /usr/local/bin/youtube-dl
maybe you have to install curl first.
@@jannemann04107 how silly. just use pip, that does everything for you.
@@boink800 my version works on every distro. pip does not.
@@jannemann04107 pip has always worked for me. that's why I use it
In my day, we didn’t have “terminals”. We had CONSOLES, real ones, weighing tons, making the kind of racket only a chain printer could, and no sissy “SD” cards either, we carried boxes full of punch cards and paper tape weighing hundreds of pounds, so we didn’t need no stinking hard drives. And no silly ASCII either; it was Gray code baby, talking over an acoustic coupler over POTS at a blazing 30 characters per second, and we LIKED it damn it!
favorites is vim and tmux(i split into main project file with vim ,todos file with vim,mc and normal terminal session to compile and run)
NCDU is AMAZING, thanks man.
Ok that Ranger remind me the Norton Commander we use with dos :)
that would be Midnight Commander
Midnight Commander, the two-panel file manager
Funny ones: sl (steam locomotive), oneko (cat chases mouse cursor, good for playing with stopping and resuming a process).
Good job 👍🏾
ytfzf uses UA-cam-dl but let's you search the video first and then open it with your favorite video player. Another good option is mps-youtube.
jrnl or nb to write notebooks...
And a lot more! I love the terminal.
vim and awk are probably my two favorites
Ooo.. totally going to run Hollywood.. you know, next time someone is allowed to visit ;)
Thanks. Got to yay ranger, ncdu and hollywood as soon as i get off work
lovely video sir
from bonus part, i cheked lolcat and boxes, they are amazing
I started using terminal stuff since my laptop tend to run out of battery slower when i restrain to just the terminal and its mouse pad was also kinda uncomfortable to use, but at this point im just doing it for the sake of satisfaction of basicaly being able to manage my whole system im the terminal xd
My favorite terminal command is Midnight Commander. It should be installed in all distros. It is small fast and lets you easily browse the file system.
Have become a fan of starship.rs, a cross shell command prompt with integrations with git and other stuff.
well done, good job
Thanks a lot for theese
im having issues installing speedread on ubuntu terminal linux. is there a command line code i can copy and paste?
which linux distro you are using?
UA-cam-dl was only taken down temporarily because the automated tests used copyrighted videos, all they had to do was to change the videos in their tests.
ok thanks
ncmpcpp + mpd/mpc, newsboat (for RSS), vim, tmux... I can't do without these.
Cool-Retro-Term is awesome
Subscribed 👍
What Linux distro do you use? I think it looks amazing, and would like to try it out. Could someone please tell me? Thanks.
He literally had pfetch and neofetch running in this video.
Very nice!
I'm curious, what's the motivation to browse the file system visually in a terminal if you have desktop window system? Feels like it's making terminal do something that already has a better implementation while forgoing what terminal does really well. To get used to terminal? But feels like that's just extra learning that doesn't have a purpose when you're gonna learn to use the actual terminal.
Htop seemed cool but I think it actually comes with something and is launchable from the desktop.
You usually do this because you are SSHed into a remote system and you only have the terminal. it's usually very fast and efficient to just work from the terminal when you're connecting to multiple machines. so the terminal tool is very useful. It's less useful when you're on a desktop and only administering your own machine.
based on your comments around speedread it doesn't sound like this one's necessarily for you, but I would definitely have included tmux especially from the point of view of remote system or SBC appliance admin. More is more, in this case ^^
And ranger is new to me, if it checks out on low resources - definitely adding that to my toolkit! Shot man!
In Spanish the word that is commonly used for toxin/venom/poison is "veneno" but there's also the dying word " ponzoña" which nobody seem to remember exist, "toxina" is also the general term
do you have your dotfiles avaiable?
My Linux says ranger command does not exist, is it renamed - or what could be the problem?
