Of course there is ranger for all vimperators…

[joekamprad]

Wasn’t it ranger with plugins to view images video and audio?

[DevNul]

I don’t know how to view audio but yeah, there are a lot of plugins for that. I like the image-viewer in ascii format…

@DevNul That reminded me of nnn

Unlike Ranger, nnn uses your default media player / image viewer

Terminology is a neat way to play around in the terminal.

Some of tools I use to check network issues.
. Iperf3 → check your network’s bandwidth (always good to know)

.mtr → combines traceroute and ping (useful to understand where something goes “wrong” in a network)

[spacepig]

browsh → " Browsh is a fully-modern text-based browser. It renders anything that a modern browser can; HTML5, CSS3, JS, video and even WebGL."

[spacepig]

works in tmux as well …kind…of not sure if all the text that I see is rendered properly - but it’s good enough
