Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Cdpath: Easily Navigate Directories in the Terminal
I've had a great time using McFly (https://github.com/cantino/mcfly) for going through my command history. It prioritizes showing commands that were previously run in your current directory!

fish-shell: the user-friendly command-line shell
I end up installing mcfly (https://github.com/cantino/mcfly) in all my shells, and it works great in fish as well.

Linux terminal user
You should try https://github.com/cantino/mcfly, it replaces the Ctrl r bind for fuzzy-search-style patter matching, that you can see all the similar commands and then select the one you want, it has been on all my machines ever since I've learnd of it

Atuin replaces your existing shell history with a SQLite database
There's also McFly which does the same thing.
https://github.com/cantino/mcfly
I've only used McFly and found it to be pretty great. My only complaint is the default search mode is SQL strings, so you have to use `%` for wildcards. I wish it was a more forgiving, less exact search.
Has anyone used both and could compare them?

Hyperfine: A command-line benchmarking tool
hyperfine is such a great tool that it's one of the first I reach for when doing any sort of benchmarking.
I encourage anyone who's tried hyperfine and enjoyed it to also look at sharkdp's other utilities, they're all amazing in their own right with fd[1] being the one that perhaps get the most daily use for me and has totally replaced my use of find(1).

Z – Jump Around
You call it with `n` and get an interactive fuzzy search for your directories. If you do `n ` instead, it’ll start the find with `` already filled in (and if there’s only one match, jump to it directly). The `ls` is optional but I find that I like having the contents visible as soon as I change a directory.
I’m also including iCloud Drive but excluding the Library directory as that is too noisy. I have a separate `nl` function which searches just inside `~/Library` for when I need it, as well as other specialised `n` functions that search inside specific places that I need a lot.

Unix as IDE: Introduction (2012)
Many (most?) of them have been overhauled with success. For find there is fd[1]. There's batcat, exa (ls), ripgrep, fzf, atuin (history), delta (diff) and many more.
Most are both backwards compatible and fresh and friendly. Your hardwon muscle memory still of good use. But there's sane flags and defaults too. It's faster, more colorful (if you wish), better integration with another (e.g. exa/eza or aware of git modifications). And, in my case, often features I never knew I needed (atuin sync!, ripgrep using gitignore).

AFAIK there is a find replacement with sane defaults: https://github.com/sharkdp/fd , a lot of people I know love it.

Oils 0.17.0 – YSH Is Becoming Real
> without zsh globs I have to remember find syntax
My "solution" to this is using https://github.com/sharkdp/fd (even when in zsh and having glob support). I'm not sure if using a tool that's not present by default would be suitable for your use cases, but if you're considering alternate shells, I suspect you might be

Bfs 3.0: The Fastest Find Yet
Nice to see other alternatives to find. I personally use fd (https://github.com/sharkdp/fd) a lot, as I find the UX much better. There is one thing that I think could be better, around the difference between "wanting to list all files that follow a certain pattern" and "wanting to find one or a few specific files". Technically, those are the same, but an issue I'll often run into is wanting to search something in dotfiles (for example the Go tools), use the unrestricted mode, and it'll find the few files I'm looking for, alongside hundreds of files coming from some cache/backup directory somewhere. This happens even more with rg, as it'll look through the files contents.
I'm not sure if this is me not using the tool how I should, me not using Linux how I should, me using the wrong tool for this job, something missing from the tool or something else entirely. I wonder if other people have this similar "double usage issue", and I'm interested in ways to avoid it.
What are some alternatives?
fzf - :cherry_blossom: A command-line fuzzy finder
telescope.nvim - Find, Filter, Preview, Pick. All lua, all the time.
atuin - ✨ Magical shell history
ripgrep - ripgrep recursively searches directories for a regex pattern while respecting your gitignore
zsh-histdb - A slightly better history for zsh
antigen - The plugin manager for zsh.
exa - A modern replacement for ‘ls’.
modern-unix - A collection of modern/faster/saner alternatives to common unix commands.
skim - Fuzzy Finder in rust!
zoxide - A smarter cd command. Supports all major shells.
vim-grepper - :space_invader: Helps you win at grep.
