I don’t understand the fascination with a program that tells you what kind of system you’re using. I’m not trolling. Can someone enlighten me on its usefulness beyond “yep, that’s what my system looks like”?
I install it on servers and put it in my bash profile so it runs when I SSH in or open a new terminal tab. Mostly just as a safety thing. It’s basically a reminder to double check I’m on the correct machine/tab before I run any commands.
That seems pretty useful, actually.
It doesn’t have to be neofetch but even in my containers and docker stuff, I try to put a little message so I don’t fuck up something.
Running through a checklist is important. I learned that from a helicopter pilot at a bar but I do think it’s true in our field. It’s not life or death on a server but training yourself to go through a simple checklist (even if it’s just “make sure this is the right terminal tab”) is good advice.
Neofetch is actually a benchmarking tool used by Arch Linux users which compete to show their high scores.
