What is some not so well-known and very specific but useful piece of software that you use?
tbsm, a terminal-based session manager. I like to login into a tty, so I enjoy not having to load x11 just to select which wm/de I'll use.

System backup software question.
What system backup software can you recommend? In the past on Ubuntu I tested Timeshift, and it looks really cool. But the "main problem" is thing, that some options not work in Fedora: https://github.com/teejee2008/timeshift, specifically BTRFS. What does it mean, this is a problem?
