Which Linux command or utility is simple, powerful, and surprisingly unknown to many people or used less often?
This could be a command or a piece of software or an application.
For example I’m surprised to find that many people are unaware of Caddy, a very simple web server that can make setting up a reverse proxy incredibly easy.
Another example is fzf. Many people overlook this, a fast command-line fuzzy finder. It’s versatile for searching files, directories, or even shell history with minimal effort.
Gripes:
-
starship and all these shell frameworks are overbloated. Just write your own prompt command and be done with it.
-
restic, ongoing issue with the author to allow people to backup without a password. Seems lime a no-brainer but he’s being difficult
