Top 10 INSANE Linux Terminal Applications You Should Be Using! (Command Line Sorcery)

[@RenderingUser]

Better alternatives 2:29 - Ranger -> Yazi 5:01 - Axcel -> Aria2 6:52 - Neofetch -> FastFetch (features) or nerdfetch (speed) 7:30 - LSD -> erdtree or eza 11:12 - NCDU -> Dust (may or may not be better) 12:28 - TLDR -> tealdeer (a faster tldr client)

[@hopelessdecoy]

Wait FAST Fetch is not for speed?

[@RenderingUser]

@@hopelessdecoy fastfetch is faster than neofetch. But also slower than nerdfetch. This is because nerdfetch only displays very little info, while fastfetch displayed an entire page of information. Even more information than neofetch. But still faster. So fast fetch technically has the highest speed to information ratio. Nerdfetch is minimal, which is what I like.

[@Nadiebobo]

Literally, I was thinking this while watching the video. Some of the video apps are deprecated and the ones that are not, have better alternatives. Is a list of apps that were used 7 years ago.

[@wtfisgoingon535]

btop -> bottom

[@RenderingUser]

@@wtfisgoingon535 imo btop is still better

[@pamus6242]

Been using Linux for over 20 years and this was a breath of fresh air.

[@rmfeld]

I found that most of these utilities also work in the macOS command line (install using brew). Great stuff. Thank for the video!

[@proteusblack8913]

Oh wow... A... File manager... A task manager... An app that shows your specs... How insane and reality breaking... No app has ever done any of those things before... Thank you so much for not just click baiting your viewers! You're definitely not like those typical click-hungry youtubers at all!

[@hopelessdecoy]

Yeah because all the click hungry ones cover Linux terminal applications to really capture every click possible, THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!! He's a regular Mr Beast or Logan Paul

[@AvidorKatz]

Wow I can't see anything on my screen cause it is all covered with blood and brain particles, because introduction was true - it is mind blowing extremely visible video with astonishingly moving pictures.

[@LT-uq6dg]

Absolutely revolutionary! I mean, I would have just incorrectly called these "very useful", but obviously that would be under minding just how INSANE these all are! I'm gonna have to call in to work today, no way I can function after being delt such a direct shock to my nervous system.

[@lilv728]

Why be nasty like this? Never understood why so many different computer science communities have so many people who behave like this online.

[@miras1433]

Tell me about it! I had 10 subsequent heart attacks 💔 while watching this video, one for each feature he shared with us. It was just so over the board with cutting-edge, borderline humanly-incomprehensible futuristic tech that my poor little blood pumping fellow right here simply could not take it 😞🙏. I only managed to survive because my brain 🧠, who was watching all that, would absolutely refrain from letting my body die, given the miraculous image being broadcast in front of it. He made me live just so he could appreciate the mesmerizing pallette of blessings laid upon my eyes 👁️👁️. The world would run out of words if I were to realistically demonstrate my appreciation for this.

[@charlesdellingerjr.1593]

Your notes shows you installing axel in place of neofetch. however neofetch has for the most part been replaced with fastfetch.

[@SirChristoferus]

Yep, it’s looking like fastfetch will be the neofetch equivalent of the next generation of Linux users.

[@aanatoly69]

good one. tnx for tldr and btop

[@LinuxTex]

Most welcome buddy

[@TechnologyBhakta]

Tldr was really helpful, thanks

[@LinuxTex]

Glad you found it helpful buddy.

[@muslimgamerrr9479]

​@@LinuxTextlrc is faster

[@wm39dm4k]

FANTASTIC!!

[@santi84]

this is a very informative video, as a linux/Mac user of more than 20 years, I found this very useful

[@Ghost_Icarus]

Well, after watching your last few videos, I'm definitely subscribing. Great work!

[@achan7396]

Great instructions. Wonder if you know which command is best to find out about hdd, sd, nvme read and write speed?

[@MarceloLimaXP]

Very good selection. Congrats.

[@omerana7466]

Very informative video sir, thank you for sharing 😊🙏

[@BrainrentGaming]

amazing vid keep it up

[@LinuxTex]

Glad you enjoyed it buddy.

[@janetmartha3261]

Waiting for your video... Wonderful ! Thanx🎉

[@waldemarwnuk]

mc - midnight commander

[@qdada2439]

Thank you, I have indeed enjoyed it. My favourite is TLDR. Much appreciated, sir.

[@DFPercush]

Did you know you can type / while viewing a man page to search for specific words? Then 'n' for next result. (These are vim bindings) Saves a lot of time digging for information if you need slightly more info than a basic example.

[@calvo_en_moto]

beautiful video, thanks =)

[@LinuxTex]

Glad you enjoyed the video buddy.

[@saad_ghannam]

The speedtest package is available on official Arch repositories by the way

[@muslimgamerrr9479]

All packages are

[@reprogrammafia]

I have been using btop,neofetch and speedtest for long time but after watching this video I'm able to know other cool ajd useful tools...

[@yousefzozw1248]

great video man thank's a lot

[@chupacabrajr4152]

btop is defo a keeper, thanks

[@JoeMooney]

You left out "Steam Locomotive".....

[@sohlasattelite]

not my proudest fail to a clickbait, but i must admit - i wouldn't be able to live on without knowing which applications were nominated to be "reality breaking"

[@repairman757]

Thanks for the video. I use mc (midnight Commander) if that can be classified as terminal application.

[@Rick_Dan]

ty for yr info, superb vid! also, commenters are more than welcome/useful for me, ty all

[@richardscritchfield4423]

Thanks!

[@Mbro-dq2do]

ranger works natively on ANY Mac via HomeBrew . Mac and Linux commands in the CLI are very similar.

[@adjusted-bunny]

The speedtest is available as a snap package.

[@darthhydralisk]

Why neofetch? It has been discntinued.

[@RenderingUser]

yes. use nerdfetch instead

[@vickylance]

Yes fastfetch is far better and gives more info and is faster than neofetch

[@dimram2005]

Great one. Bravo !!! Please upload something with shell scripting with real - life examples , in order to check your content and enroll to your class ... Thank you :)

[@vladislav_artyukhov]

lsd - is very explicit name for what terminal would look like 😄

[@CeccoPierangioliEuge]

Wow, I didn't know about tldr

[@ForeverZer0]

There is also cheat.sh, which is intended to be used with curl, such as "curl cheat.sh/cat", etc. It also works for programming languages, for example "curl cheat.sh/rust/arc". This can easily be combined to make tooling to fetch documentation.

[@jumpnjack808]

holy crap... Thank you

[@NidrixGlandda]

oooh, very dangerous commands you got there

[@lancemarchetti8673]

Will this work in WSL2?

[@RodneyFisk]

I gave a thumbsup just for hollywood

[@sanjeevsinghrajput5593]

Just use exa instead of lsd, its better

[@RenderingUser]

exa is unmaintained. use eza, a maintained fork. or try erdtree

[@robertnicora7566]

You know you Can watch starwars in your terminal too ?

[@jakobw135]

In GENERAL, can you RESTORE an accidentally deleted file, like you can in Windows?

[@PriestApostate]

What about tmux?

[@indyztech]

Where is Durdraw? :)

[@technics6215]

Tldr is really nice.

[@Mbro-dq2do]

axel also works natively on Mac

[@PS3PCDJ]

Neofetch should NOT be recommended anymore, as it's an unmaintained packages and many package managers are dropping it, like nixpkgs for example

[@ramhad4476]

Will these apps work in red hat?

[@comosaycomosah]

is lsd still updated?

[@sushilmaharjan5439]

how to install speedtest for fedora 40 i am stuck

[@Sub0x-x40]

bro i ran neofetch and a swat team kicked my door in, what have you done?

[@LinuxTex]

I did say some of these commands are dangerous. Didn't I 😉

[@jairo_canova]

Nmap if you want to get arrested. Splunk to get sassy

[@calabiyau-ib9hp]

🤯

[@kendrapokhrel1086]

you cannot make a tutorial video and ask to install with one specific command. apt works for a specific distros only and assuming everybody will use ubuntu or similar distro is a huge mistake.

[@kendrapokhrel1086]

That is now a help for only a handful of distros. Some of us do search the internet and find things for ourselves but if you plan on making a tutorial video and talk about how every linux user can do these, you should also know that the commands provided works for every distros out there. These kinda tutorials create a sense of confusion among those using red-hat based distros(dnf/yum), arch(pacman), openSUSE(zypper), gentoo(portage), slackware(pkgtools/slackpkg), void(xbps), solus(eopkg), nixos(nix), last but not the lease alpine(apx).

[@kirangeorge8]

Lol, neofetch

[@ForeverZer0]

Everyone still uses neofetch, even though has it been maintained in quite some time. It does still work though.

[@kirangeorge8]

@ForeverZer0 problem is, its slow.

[@ForeverZer0]

@@kirangeorge8 I mistyped, I meant to say it has not been maintained. The project is literally abandonware, and most people using it are not even aware.

[@purplevanilla]

How do I quit ranger?

[@chachumurphy3928]

Type colon then type exit....like this (;exit) and press enter 😊

[@purplevanilla]

@@chachumurphy3928 hey bro theres also another way i found to quit. You just have to press Q, but thanks for the answer 👌

[@BitsOfTruth]

I know Hollywood is harmless but even I get a little edgy when my home directory name goes flying by. I guess it shows because it pulls at least some of its text from the computer it is running on.

[@sergedmytrienko5605]

boring, always the same things ... btop, ranger, ... blablabla

[@centy64]

Ha man hollywood is hilarious I'm a super h4x0r now!

[@muslimgamerrr9479]

Yazi is better then ranger, tlrc js way faster, eza is better

[@almarn]

You missed the best one..broot.....fzf is nice also...but not as good as broot...neofetch is deprecated..use fastfetch....

[@nealinux]

Use yazi instead of ranger. Use fastfetch instead of neofetch. Use eza instead of lsd.

[@cybernit3]

Ya, I notice that neofetch has no longer support unless someone took over; so use fastfetch instead plus it is written in C not a script like neofetch. Thanks again for the video Linux Tex.

[@matyasmarkkovacs8336]

Nope. I'm fine with these

[@RenderingUser]

what about erdtree over eza?

[@Jitheeswar24]

bro help me I have done the same in 9:30 but FBI caught me when I told them I did nothing 😂😂

[@kingneutron1]

Thanks!

[@LinuxTex]

Thanks for the support buddy.
