It was `btop`, of course being new I never heard about it. Then I thought – how many cool tools/packages are there, which people use, but I am not aware of?\n\nSo what do you like? What do you install on a fresh install? What are the most useful tools in your belt? What can’t you live without on Linux?\n\nPerhaps I’ll find something useful :)",
