What is your favorite lightweight tool or CLI utility in 2026?
Tools like ripgrep, fzf, and htop have saved me countless hours over the years. What small utilities do you rely on daily?
bearer-cli for static application security testing
timeshift baobab tmux tealdeer zoxide
ssh, scp, tmux, (grml-)zsh, grep, less, file, tar, git
The time saving of a well filled ~/.ssh/config is impressive, especially once you start juggling ProxyJump hops.
Gotta be jujutsu. I've completely stopped using git and use jj everywhere instead. It works so much better for my workflow.
ssh and scp just never fails to impress
-J for jumping
-L for port forwarding
-X for pulling remote applications to view on my laptop (waypipe for Wayland)
Adding all those, and ips and whatnot to .ssh/config so I just type:
ssh foo
