AltWinDirStat
Shameful self-plug for a small project that I stopped improving as soon as it became useful for me: https://github.com/alanbernstein/treemonger
The subdivision algorithm and display style are intended to mimic the old version of spacemonger. For whatever reason, that was always my favorite way of visualizing disk space, and I wanted to use something similar on Linux.

The author's views on code seem rather opinionated in general. Their thoughts on internationalization in particular go against all best practices in the pursuit of clean code dogma: https://github.com/ariccio/altWinDirStat/tree/master/WinDirS...
I'm amused that the author rants about the importance of being able to easily analyze code and then wants to produce (presumably) a different binary per language to analyze all over.
Their commit messages are also rather colorful. This is a cool project, but seemingly not someone I'd enjoy working with.
