Which Linux command or utility is simple, powerful, and surprisingly unknown to many people or used less often?
This could be a command or a piece of software or an application.
For example I’m surprised to find that many people are unaware of Caddy, a very simple web server that can make setting up a reverse proxy incredibly easy.
Another example is fzf. Many people overlook this, a fast command-line fuzzy finder. It’s versatile for searching files, directories, or even shell history with minimal effort.
Also my favourite way to push a core to 100% CPU
yes > /dev/nullhow is that better than
cat /dev/zero > /dev/nullor
while true; do :; doneWho said it was better? It’s just my favourite.
Like my favourite shirt, it’s no better than the others, but it brings me a little joy :)
