Fx – Terminal JSON Viewer
This fx rewrite is very exciting. I'll have to try it. I thought of fx as a wrapper around jq, that allowed quick iteration over building jq scripts. Sort of an Ultimate Plumber [1] but only for jq. It looks like it is now more like a JavaScript processor plus an interactive viewer.
Someone mention Visidata[2]? VisiData is also a TUI that is great on tabular data, and it can work with json. If your JSON is mostly tabular in nature, Visidata does a great job at showing that data and allowing you to explore it. A lot of json I deal with is tabular-like data. There is a great tutorial [3], that can help you get your bearings with Visidata. Once you understand those basics you might want to look at this thread [4] for what commands you can use with json.

`jqp`, a TUI playground for `jq`
Been using up for years but this looks nice too
-
An interactive wrapper around `jq`
Fun. But I can achieve the same result (I think) with ultimate plumber and regular jq, but without being restricted just to jq. Feel free to correct me.

What are some useful cli tools that arent popular?

Go: What We Got Right, What We Got Wrong
Not sure these are really popular, but I cannot resist advertising a few utilities written in Go that I regularly use in my daily workflow:
- gdu: a NCDU clone, much faster on SSD mounts [1]
- duf: a `df` clone with a nicer interface [2]
- massren: a `vidir` clone (simpler to use but with fewer options) [3]
- gotop: a `top` clone [4]
- micro: a nice TUI editor [5]
Building this kind of tools in Go makes sense, as the executables are statically compiled and are thus easy to install on remote servers.

For anyone that likes ncdu I would highly recommend gdu. https://github.com/dundee/gdu

new and interesting file managers or text editors for the cli lately?
gdu is faster

Midnight Commander is MIA; any command line based twin pane file manager recommendations?
gdu - Just a very fast and cool disk usage explorer
-
RPCS3 compile to SD card?
The RPCS3 flatpak lives in /home/deck/.var/app/net.rpcs3.RPCS3. I'd advise you to install a tool like gdu or use something like du -h --max-depth=1 in the console in that directory, to find where the disk usage goes. There are also GUI tools, but I prefer these myself.

Ncdu – NCurses Disk Usage
While ncdu does the job I've found gdu (similar tool written in Go) significantly faster for larger directories.

There's also gdu, which is much faster on SSDs.
