I’ve given both htop
and btop
a spin, and I have to say that I really prefer htop
. It offers a prettier interface and more features than top
, while still feeling less bloated than btop
to me. So yeah, it’s definitely my go-to choice!
Thanks for the suggestion! I will try it out.
Never heard of it.
the white blocks of
top
Did you mean the upper right corner of top
? I also fine btop
is overwhelming, too pretty to look at.
Never heard of bottom
before, I will check it out. Thanks for the suggestion.
Agree with you on the beauty of btop
, but sometimes less is more and that’s why I think it’s bloated. When working with the terminal, text-based programs work best on it so htop
is much more to my liking due to its minimalist interface.
To be honest, I really prefer btop
’s sleek UI. It looks so modern and advanced. But with all its beauty and abundance of information, it can be overwhelming at times or in another words, bloattt. That’s why I personally lean towards htop
’s text-based interface, which I find highly customizable to my preferences. Plus, htop offers more features and conveniences than top
, making it my go-to choice for now.
Yeah, that is the reason I use top
in the first place. No need for an extra package and I can use it on pretty much every system.
Now that you mention it, I also have to check out ps
just in case…
Never heard of it. I will have to check it out later.
I think you still should learn how to use top
in case something happens and btop
is out of the picture. That is the reason I use and stick with it in the first place.
Up top
Why do you think that? After this post, I will try out both of them but maybe eventually I will still just use top
out of, same as you bro, habit.
Totally, but I do want to know about other people experience tho. So if you don’t mind, share with me my friend.
top
’s output does appear somewhat cryptic and hard to digest quickly.

I was just like you, but one day I got a USB stick and decided, ‘Heck, I’m gonna install Linux today!’. And it was surprisingly easy, I haven’t seen anything weird.
