every day i also use:

cpupower - because i dislike when the fans are spinning, i set the cpu to max 1000, or 2000, or 3000 mhz.

convert/imagemagick - i use it very often to apply hald cluts to my digital photos.

light - use it every day to control the screen backlight.

@dimkr @hellfire103 mentioned terminal multiplexers. I think it is a fun idea in principle, but all my muscle memory are build around dwm.

Currently, when I work without X11, I just alt-ctl-fx around different ttys but terminal multiplexer seems to be a much more elegant solution. Is there a way to drop in a dot file for say, zellij/dvtm or tmux so they behave more like the dwm? Any input appreciated!

@decant dvtm is very close to dwm (stack layout, monocle, etc')

lf file manager - I had used ranger for years and then found lf and stuck to it. Hardly ever need anything else.

aerc mail - coming from neomutt, aerc is a fresh breeze of minimal yet powerful and easy to configure (looking at you, mutt!) software.

pim utils - khard, khal, todoman and vdirsyncer for contacts, calendar, todos and sync with my own nextcloud server respectively. Invaluable!

Share minimalistic CLI softwares you use, I will start: sfm - a file manager build on termbox, you can set program to handle a file type (by file name extension) in config.h vgmi - CLI gemini browser with vi keybinding written in C, their official git seems to be locked behind password, but their github mirror is still open.
