Playing around with PeppermintOS on a "new " old laptop, and having fun. Its making me realize that tiny things can really work to impress. (Especially when you're waiting on a ram upgrade, haha!)

Could be terminal based or GUI, I'm just curious---what tiny apps do you use that you think are neat? Things that don't take up much storage or memory.

My two favorites are recently:

nnn for managing files
miller for all my CSV needs
rg for searching in files
navi for my cheatsheet needs
nb for my jotting needs

Nice. I've been putting off for some time trying to find something better than GnuCash or buckling down and writing my own. This looks perfect.
