Show HN: A CLI tool that enables you to remove files easily and safely
I still use Rip (Rm Improved) even though it hasn't updated in 4 years https://github.com/nivekuil/rip . But a tool this simple doesn't need to

rmw (ReMove to Waste), a command line trash utility
This looks like a nice replacement for the seemingly defunct rip: https://github.com/nivekuil/rip. Will definitely have to play around with this.

Rust Easy! Modern Cross-platform Command Line Tools to Supercharge Your Terminal
rip is an improved version of the rm command. It is faster, safer, and user-friendly. rip sends deleted files to a temp location so they can be recovered using rip -u. I really like the simplicity and the revert feature, as I don't have to worry about accidentally deleting something using rm. While rip can be aliased to replace rm, the creators advise not doing that as you might get used to it and do rm on other systems where you cannot revert the delete.

Show HN: Rmt an alternative to rm with trash written in Rust
There is `rip`[1] (also written in Rust) which does more or less the same? Or am I missing something?

Fellow linux users, if you can have one thing from other operating systems in linux, what would it be?
https://github.com/nivekuil/rip making people use things like that is scary, people really don't like change and i really don't like to preach anything for anyone. But i use it... i remember getting into arguments about CLI mp3 players and why they are stupid for my use case and i almost lost my mind, i don't want to be the person talking about RM lol.

Deciding between Rust or Go for desktop applications
Folks open to using gdu might like to try dust (6k stars), or even erdtree (1.4k stars) which is too recent to show up on lists like this and still a bit behind on stars. A lot of people seem to use starship (33k stars) though I'm personally oldschool on prompts. There are many other items on that list I'm not motivated to check.

Rust vs Go Issue
The first thought I had was to use rayon for this. And looking at some prior art that does pretty much the exact same thing, it does indeed use rayon.

Thank you DaisyDisk!
The dust CLI command (made with Rust) can do this too.

Sloth – A Mac app that shows all open files, directories, sockets, etc.
Happened to me this morning, something filled up my drive in minutes. I used dust[1] to look for large files while it was happening but knowing what was doing it would've been a big help.
