A very nice GUI client for git. Nice design and pretty functional layout - somewhat reminiscent of GitKraken
Voice control: transform various alphabet's and morphemes (graphemes?) into actions on the pc.
Fun demonstration here: https://numenvoice.org/
Can for example translate 'terminate' into closing a window, or 'west' into focusing left tile in a tiling wm, or 'yes' into return on the terminal.
Seems fun for regular use but really useful for those who can not regularly use their hands to type for whatever reason.
PEASS - Privilege Escalation Awesome Scripts SUITE (with colors) - peass-ng/PEASS-ng
Plugin for sudo that requires another human to approve and monitor privileged sudo sessions - square/sudo_pair
A network traffic monitor for Linux and BSD. Outputs nice statistics, and can even output them to stdout/file as png image using vnstati
for later display on a website or whatever. Neat!
Declarative package & configuration manager for Arch Linux.
Similar to 'pacdef' but written in python (not rust) and using python to define the declaration.
Primarily, that means two things:
a. the declaration language is super flexible and can be used for all kinds of advanced shenanigans. Essentially Nix-like without the steep functional learning curve if you already know python.
b. the bootstrapping process is a little more awkward as we first need to ensure the correct python interpreter (and potentially dependencies?) installed on the system. For a rust-based program you can more easily just use a specific binary.
Can also take care of systemD services and configuration files to some extent.
multi-backend declarative package manager for Linux - steven-omaha/pacdef
Interesting approach, used to be exclusively for arch pacman, now can be used for pacman, apt, pip (and pipx!), xbps, cargo and a few others.
You create a list (or multiple lists for different groups) of packages and it ensures that they are installed. If they do not appear in a list, it ensures they are not installed. That's that.
ONLY takes care of packages, not config files, systemd services or similar - for that look to decman.
Why you shouldn't use Manjaro and maybe instead just Archlinux or perhaps EndeavourOS
Run Windows apps such as Microsoft Office/Adobe in Linux (Ubuntu/Fedora) and GNOME/KDE as if they were a part of the native OS, including Nautilus integration.
Works for Office Apps and Adobe apps, and a few other microsoft-owned ones. Seems very interesting way to integrate with Linux system.
Do not know if it works outside the Gnome/KDE ecosystems.
wf-shadow records your wayland sessions. Simple as, using wf-recorder and a few other dependencies.
a central pacman cache. Contribute to nroi/flexo development by creating an account on GitHub.
Good explanation of the Arch - btrfs snapshot interaction, as well as pacman snaps with snap-pac and snapper rollbacks.
Colorpicker for wayland. Simple cli script. Launch it and pick a color anywhere from your desktop!
Tell the program to favor performance or powersaving and it will do all the CPU auto scaling for you, depending on usage, temperature, load, battery.
Simple, nice and useful for laptops (or desktops/servers depending on you energy bill ;)
Ananicy rewritten in C++ for much lower CPU and memory usage.
Auto-nices your linux processes depending on custom rules. Can use all the community-provided default rules from Ananicy (since it's drop-in, just faster and less memory-hungry).
- ChimeraLinux: https://chimera-linux.org/
A kind of hybrid BSD (userland) and Linux (kernel) distro, trying out new things. Usesapk
, runs on a wide variety (x64, arm, riscv, rpi, ..) of arches, usesdinit
as service manager. - VoidLinux: https://voidlinux.org/
Rolling but stable, tries to be low-maintenance (once set up) and unix-like, i.e. simple and file-based; nice custom pkg manager (xbps) and AUR-like 'template' system to build wide variety of software - Artix: https://artixlinux.org/
Arch without systemd is its primary claim to fame, provides a variety of service managers (dinit
,s6
,runit
,openrc
) - EasyOS: https://easyos.org/

purely gaming focused and made to be installed on handheld consoles. Install, boot into Steam and start playing is the idea. - KISSLinux: http://kisscommunity.org/ | https://kisslinux.github.io/

package management, sane packaged software (meta-distro) - QubesOS: https://www.qubes-os.org/
run everything in a virtual environment (hypervisors) -- each application, whole other OSes, USB devices, networking and even system management and the display manager - SnowflakeOS: https://snowflakeos.org/
Early development version atm but aims to be NixOS with easier installation, sane gov structure and grokkable documentation afaik
Mirror your screen output (for projector work, presentations and similar) in wayland.
Basically just creates a window into which whatever output you select will be copied.
Nice, amazingly easy and useful cli software!
Use it like wl-mirror DP-5
(or whatever output).
To find out your current output names, you can use e.g. wlopm
Voidlinux pipewire setup guide, very useful!
