From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

htop is my go-to these days. It tells me what I need to know, and it's just nice to look at.
I've given both
htopandbtopa spin, and I have to say that I really preferhtop. It offers a prettier interface and more features thantop, while still feeling less bloated thanbtopto me. So yeah, it's definitely my go-to choice!Btop is pretty. Htop tells me what I want to know. I prefer htop and it's my goto.
