what's a good Linux terminal file manager in late 2023?
FAR Manager 2
-
Total Commander
I still use Total Commander on my Android phones/tablets.
For MacOS, the closest ones are:

Double Commander
Abstract:
Marta is the greatest file manager for MacOS, by light years.
Longer version:
Before switching away from Windows, I was a long-time Far Manager [1] user. It is a great, great program far better than various graphical commanders. It had a set of killer features:
1. Quick directories, press ctrl-1 and you are there
2. No graphical cruft. All these tiny boxes and panels with buttons you see everywhere on the likes of Total commander, Double commander, etc, they are gone, none
3. It is text mode. Hard to spoil a properly done text mode with bad fonts, tiny fonts, etc - especially if you can set them up yourself
4. Folder operations. Open same folder in another panel, compare panels, selecting files, masks, regex, all done, all great
5. Great archive support. Open archive from folder, copy from archive, all done all great
6. Very, very capable build-in editor with code highlighting, and hex viewer/editor(!). I could edit savegames right from a file manager, imagine that?!
I could go on, but nothing I have ever tried on GNU/Linux and MacOS came even close to it. I even tried to use ports of Far [2], but it is... well, far from smoothly supporting either platform.
So I was really unhappy when using MacOS (there are few apps I hate as much as native Finder) until I've found Marta [3] recently. And Marta is truly great file manager for MacOS that even improves on Far in a lot of ways. Its author Yan Zhulanow is an extremely great developer who has put a lot of thought into the application, and it does everything that Far does (maybe sans a built-in editor), and it improves on it in many ways. Try it out.
It is blazing fast, it is very well thought through from top to bottom, and it is probably one of the few perfect apps that leave you stunned after discovering it. It does have a relatively high learning curve to learn how to configure it and to learn all the hotkeys, but the result is very much worth it.

Managing your files. How do you do it?
I'm already using vifm as my main-file-manager so I'm using `fm-nvim with a custom vifm-open-function to open up vifm in nvim.

Very new to Vim. Having trouble with running programs
You might want “vifm” instead, it’s a vim inspired file manager for the CLI that will let you see files and open them … https://github.com/vifm/vifm

No, it's a standalone Vim-like file manager (site).
