Command line tools I always install on Ubuntu servers
Probably everyone knows about the "top" command. Htop is similar, but gives us a more user-friendly output. It shows processes using the most resources, how much available resources you have and who runs those processes. For more information, visit https://htop.dev/

distro hopping
determine which processes consume specific resources (in your particular case even a "5 minutes session of staring at htop" would do the trick.) (Alternatives: ps -ef, ps aux, top, glances ... )
- some LXC exposing Host CPU Information

Linux on older hardware as a programmer
When you see the laptop throttling, is htop or another monitoring program showing that the RAM is full, or is it only partly used?

Arc 80% CPU load!
I like htop to check system resources

ncmpcpp is not really fetching the lyrics
Nevermind, Azlyrics changed the html tags so the lyric_fetchers was simply fetching blank. This PR takes care of it. I simply build the the branch with the commit and everything is working. Expect to see it in the next few upstream release

If you want to stream audio from a service like Spotify or SoundCloud, I can recommend Mopidy as a backend with a commandline frontend like ncmpcpp.
