vtop VS htop

I was looking for a system monitor tool like top but with Vim bindings, mainly for monitoring CPU usage, and stumbled across vtop. It's great, but it hasn't been updated in four years. Is there any active fork of vtop available, or do you guys know of any similar tool out there?

vtop displays info about processes your system has running, general info about the memory and CPU usage of your machine

vtop: A graphical activity monitor for the command line.

Surprised nobody's mentioned vtop. Especially nice because if you already have npm, you can just do npx vtop without needing to install it first. (I'm sure it's not the only JS tool in this thread, though)

i use neofetch for the spec, and vtop for the process viewer

vtop - More better top, with nice charts.

with braille characters, like vtop? or something even nicer?

Those are CLI applications. Top left neofetch, top right is top, which every ? unix machine has access to and bottom left is cmatrix. Instead of top, you also can try vtop or htop.

Probably everyone knows about the "top" command. Htop is similar, but gives us a more user-friendly output. It shows processes using the most resources, how much available resources you have and who runs those processes. For more information, visit https://htop.dev/

determine which processes consume specific resources (in your particular case even a "5 minutes session of staring at htop" would do the trick.) (Alternatives: ps -ef, ps aux, top, glances ... )

When you see the laptop throttling, is htop or another monitoring program showing that the RAM is full, or is it only partly used?

I like htop to check system resources

try htop. It's already on Ubuntu, not sure about other flavors.

Program it in yourself: https://github.com/htop-dev/htop

htop is a colour-coded command-line system monitor, process viewer, and process manager. It shows a list of processes running on your computer ordered by CPU usage
