Converting zsh theme to fish
Now my terminal looks very good! Unfortunately, though, I noticed a screenshot from the colorls Github page and now I definitely want to configure fish to look like this, but that theme is made for zsh (oh my zsh).

Is there any maintaned alternative to vtop, i.e. a system monitor with Vim bindings?
I was looking for a system monitor tool like top but with Vim bindings, mainly for monitoring CPU usage, and stumbled across vtop. It's great, but it hasn't been updated in four years. Is there any active fork of vtop available, or do you guys know of any similar tool out there?

vtop displays info about processes your system has running, general info about the memory and CPU usage of your machine

What is your favorite system monitor? (And why)
Surprised nobody's mentioned vtop. Especially nice because if you already have npm, you can just do npx vtop without needing to install it first. (I'm sure it's not the only JS tool in this thread, though)

Got my first ever Macbook Pro.
Those are CLI applications. Top left neofetch, top right is top, which every ? unix machine has access to and bottom left is cmatrix. Instead of top, you also can try vtop or htop.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing colorls and vtop you can also consider the following projects:
exa - A modern replacement for ‘ls’.
htop - htop - an interactive process viewer
powerlevel10k - A Zsh theme
http-server - a simple zero-configuration command-line http server
Pastel - Terminal output styling with intuitive and clean API.
browser-run - Run code inside a browser from the command line
Tmuxinator - Manage complex tmux sessions easily
tty-table - Terminal table for Windows, Linux, and MacOS. Written in nodejs. Also works in browser console. Word wrap, padding, alignment, colors, Asian character support, per-column callbacks, and you can pass rows as objects or arrays. Backwards compatible with Automattic/cli-table.
Terminal Table - Ruby ASCII Table Generator, simple and feature rich.
np - A better `npm publish`
