Pipexec – Handling pipe of commands like a single command
I use mutlios and even I'm not that attached to it. The majority of my use is combined with process substitution, and could be replaced with common-ish tools like pee¹ or pipexec for more complex cases. The only occasion when I'm thankful for it is if I want to use a shell function as a target, but there are workarounds for that too.
As a noclobber user the footgun is largely hidden to me, but I feel its presence. multios without globbing support would be less useful, but would still work for most of my use cases. Scanning my shell history I see various cases of relying on zsh's ability to apply sorting and filtering to globs with multios' input redirection, but only a couple where I want that in output redirection.
Even with multios unset the behaviour is different between zsh and bash. For example, multios disables all the expansion, so zsh behaves like more like dash with ': >t{1,2}' by creating a file instead producing an error like bash does.
[FWIW, I google'd multiios to link the option in original comment. It really feels to me like it needs double-i, and I read the single i name the same way you do.]

I'd be one of those people whose desire for dgsh-like functionality wanes. If it was slight DSL that I could "upgrade" pipelines to I'd probably use it, but not enough to warrant working on it or switching other tooling to support it.
The end of result of this morning's pipeline was breaking my jobs up, and applying some judicious use of nq² to keep track of it. I'd follow your advice and move on to more specialist tools if the job grew significantly or if it became a regular occurrence.

The shell and its crappy handling of whitespace
For filesystem operations like batch renames at least, I am usually happy with `vidir` (part of `moreutils`: https://joeyh.name/code/moreutils/).
`vidir [path]` will open an editor with the given directory as buffer contents.

See also: "vipe" from the excellent "moreutils" package: https://joeyh.name/code/moreutils/
There are some other gems in this package. The ones I find myself using regularly are 'ts' and 'sponge' but I'm sure the useful subset depends a lot on the kind of work you are doing

Vim Keybindings Everywhere – The Ultimate List
Joey Hess' excellent moreutils¹ comes with vipe which is a generalised solution for these types of tasks. It allows you to run whatever $EDITOR you've configured mid-pipe, making it possible to work your changes up in an interactive editor session. Useful for those of us not smart enough to write up our changes as a series of -c arguments ;)
(It fixes the vim issue by virtue of using a temporary file to do the magic)

vimv has not only changed my workflow, it changed my life
Sounds like `vidir` from moreutils.

What "nice-to-have" CLI tools do you know?
vidir and a few others from moreutils

Use pee (yes, I know) from moreutils. Something like:

How to re-order the strings of a filename in bulk?
I would use vidir from moreutils. Then you can do any edits and play around with any regexes you want!
-
Should i learn file management using terminal?
For bulk file renaming, I recommend vidir from moreutils - it lets you rename everything in a directory with your $EDITOR (vim being the default).

Rclone syncs your files to cloud storage
Says that Apple doesn't provide a multi platform API. It doesn't provide any official supported way to access iCloud from Windows, Linux.
There's a ticket covering everything you might ever want to know:

Ask HN: Best modern file transfer/synchronization protocol?
seconding rsync and syncthing.
the server could expose an smb or nfs share, the client could mount it, and then sync to that mount.
rsync over ssh also works, if you do not want to run smb/nfs.
this is also a cool tool https://rclone.org/

Which synchronization tool are you using together with the pCloud Crypto Folder?
rclone provides a special pCloud config option, which makes the setup straight forward. rclone can encrypt the data it uploads with its own encryption but not with the pCloud encryption. Therefore it can only upload data to the unencrypted pCloud folders, not to the Crypto Folder.

All I want for Christmas is
The arkclone project impliments rclone in ArkOS to achieve cloud saves. Not yet built in to ArkOS yet, and not a lot of recent traction on the pull request to get it added, but it can be installed manually.
What are some alternatives?
pipe-rename - Rename your files using your favorite text editor
syncthing - Open Source Continuous File Synchronization
atomicxt
Cryptomator - Multi-platform transparent client-side encryption of your files in the cloud
map.xplr - Visually inspect and interactively execute batch commands using xplr
rsync - An open source utility that provides fast incremental file transfer. It also has useful features for backup and restore operations among many other use cases.
lineselect - Shell utility to interactively select lines from stdin
s3fs-fuse - FUSE-based file system backed by Amazon S3
fstring - Make searching for text strings easier on Linux :)
Duplicati - Store securely encrypted backups in the cloud!
vidir - edit directory in $EDITOR (better than vim . with netrw)
