Ncdu is a really useful little utility that shows you what directories are using the most space on whichever drive/directory you select. Really useful little piece of software.

hdparm is another neato one that let’s you test the read speeds of your drives, though it’s more so something ya use once and forget exists.

Also, though Neovim is more popular, Helix deserves some recognition. It’s a rust based, vim inspired text editor which removes the need to configure it, making it easier for people trying to get into terminal text editors.

Edit: Jerboa removed the first name, my bad.

They might have specific uses that most users might not need and there may be better alternatives but some of the ones I’ve been using are:

CISO - A command line tool for making compressed ISO files that can be used in emulators and some video game consoles running custom firmware.

RAR - The Linux version of WinRAR, which doesn’t have a UI like the Windows version does.

Flatpak - Probably well known but in case a newer Linux user sees this, it’s used to download and install flatpaks from Flathub.
