What's a really niche tool you use that you can't live without?
Instead of archiving collections of images in tar or zip files, img2pdf losslessly packs images into PDF files. This makes them really, really easy to browse without unpacking or archive-mounting them.

The best datahoarding hint that changed my live: use RAR archives (or any other archive format, really)
archivemount can mount into the filesystem any archive format that libarchive supports, which is several: zip, rar, tar, cpio, ISO9660, 7-Zip, ar, lha/lzh, Microsoft CAB, mtree, pax, shar, WARC, xar.

Container for archiving many small files
For bundling, my main constraint is that archivemount or gio mount archive:// can seek within the archive: so tar and zip are fine, but tar.gz is not. Squashfs also works well.

Ugrep – a more powerful, ultra fast, user-friendly, compatible grep
Good find, thanks! I'll check if I prefer it to moar.
As for bat, according to https://github.com/sharkdp/bat#using-bat-on-windows, the Chocolatey package simply installs `less` alongside `bat`. Seems like a good idea, but I haven't tried it.

Tell HN: Please don't print –help to stderr in your CLI tools
For this reason I have a zsh function in my .zshrc with bat (which pages by default, if it's longer than your console height):
