Ncdu – NCurses Disk Usage
See also tkdu for a graphical version: https://github.com/daniel-beck/tkdu
It's abandoned but it still works, and I like it because you can pipe the output of du into it, which is useful for visualizing remote systems.

Go: What We Got Right, What We Got Wrong
Not sure these are really popular, but I cannot resist advertising a few utilities written in Go that I regularly use in my daily workflow:
- gdu: a NCDU clone, much faster on SSD mounts [1]
- duf: a `df` clone with a nicer interface [2]
- massren: a `vidir` clone (simpler to use but with fewer options) [3]
- gotop: a `top` clone [4]
- micro: a nice TUI editor [5]
Building this kind of tools in Go makes sense, as the executables are statically compiled and are thus easy to install on remote servers.

new and interesting file managers or text editors for the cli lately?
gdu is faster
- How to report on usage?
- Why does macOS keep a cache of every wallpaper ever used?

Midnight Commander is MIA; any command line based twin pane file manager recommendations?
gdu - Just a very fast and cool disk usage explorer

RPCS3 compile to SD card?
The RPCS3 flatpak lives in /home/deck/.var/app/net.rpcs3.RPCS3. I'd advise you to install a tool like gdu or use something like du -h --max-depth=1 in the console in that directory, to find where the disk usage goes. There are also GUI tools, but I prefer these myself.

Ncdu – NCurses Disk Usage
While ncdu does the job I've found gdu (similar tool written in Go) significantly faster for larger directories.

Why can i not resize my main partition? I’m running out of space and have no idea why
There's also gdu, which is much faster on SSDs.
What are some alternatives?
dust - A more intuitive version of du in rust
higgs - A tiny cross-platform Go library to hide/unhide files and directories
npkill - List any node_modules 📦 dir in your system and how heavy they are. You can then select which ones you want to erase to free up space 🧹
duf - Disk Usage/Free Utility - a better 'df' alternative
micro-editor - A modern and intuitive terminal-based text editor
pathtype - Add a type for paths in Go.
diskonaut - Terminal disk space navigator 🔭
modern-unix - A collection of modern/faster/saner alternatives to common unix commands.
btdu - sampling disk usage profiler for btrfs
todotxt - Parser for todo.txt files in Go ✅
