The only GUI library you need is ncurses.
There’s no escape from ANSII escape characters!
I don’t even see the symbols anymore

Ranger is also incidentally the name of my dog.
A pupper so swell they named an OS after him!

Midnight Commander has been around for ages. It’s a straight ripoff/homage to the original Norton Commander, a full-fledged file manager and a godsend on week-kneed machines (like old netbooks).

Yes. k9s comes to my mind.
I’m the kind of guy who will sometomes automate his laziness. I once wrote a simple gui that was basically this meme.
500GB? Teeny drive
Man I’m just poor
I run 128gb on my laptop lol
Wait, how? I have zero games installed on my 1TB laptop and still only have like 300GB free.
Not everyone has a 500 GB yiff collection. Some people keep their yiff in the cloud.
HAHAHA.
Did you try removing the French language pack?
I want to get 2-4 TB because of torrents
@olafurp @AlecSadler What kind of data hoader are you?!
I mean, if you can afford that sure, but I find it unnecesary.
Also, how do you plan to backup that much storage? just curious about the last one, I always find it hard to backup more than 100 GB of mediaJellyfin hoarder type. My dream setup is something like 16TB bay with a Raspberri pi
@olafurp I have 1TB SSD storage on my rpi and I delete series once I have watched them, otherwise I eventually run out of storage if I don’t. Well, good luck, but maybe before upgrading your storage you should upgrade your home server, a rpi is powerfull but you will eventually face problems related to I/O and CPU limitations
bb showed us what the terminal can really do
Consumer friendly?
The purpose of Unix was to be user friendly. And it is. You haven’t seen what it replaced.
Also friendliness doesn’t require a Fisher Price interface.
I really don’t like how “consumer-friendly” means “GUI that resembles Windows” in the minds of so many people.
I like the terminal but don’t remember all the arguments. I find that clunky. That’s my main issue with it. (I’m open to suggestions if anyone has any)
I highly recommend zsh. It takes a moment to setup initially, but you can use oh-my-zsh to just skip that part and use one of the many, many presets, and it supports plugins, of which there are many. It gives you tab support for so many popular commands, you will never need to remember them, and it has a lot of small improvements that makes your terminal life a breath. For example, if you do cd tab in bash, it will give you a list of subdirrectories. If you do the same in zsh, it will give you that list and a cursor that you can use to navigate said list, so instead of typing the dir, you can do cd tab tab tab enter
For someone that doesn’t like the cli, I’d recommend fish instead of that as it just works with no setup.
Gotta meet the customer where they are, not where you would like them to be. Most people don’t want to learn a new thing.
You gotta meet the customer halfway until you get enough of them hooked, then slowly start introducing new ideas into their mental ecosystems that align with your vision.
Then add adverts into that ecosystem and center their program menu. Ooh! Then change their right menus! They’d love that! Or, maybe they won’t, but whatever.
