I was using ncdu, but this one looks promising too.

No idea ncdu was a thing, looks nice and easier than du.

Haven't tried it out yet, but dust is another thing.

How does it fare on BTRFS? Does it go into mounted subvolumes?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

No idea, you'll have to ask there.

@dessalines how is it different from gdu? Ah! It lists gdu as an alternative. What they lack is speed on HDD.

Perfect! Just what I need to manage storage on my headless Mac mini. I can pull up Apple Remote Desktop and run OmniDiskSweeper, but using this with SSH will be nice.

Check out OmniDiskSweeper for an oft-overlooked gem, btw. Best storage management app I've ever used. Forget stupid visualizations that are meant to look cool to nerds. This is practical and works just like dua-cli.
