#22I wish the one-sentence descriptions were displayed in the lists. When I click through to https://terminaltrove.com/new/ , I have to click through every single one of those names to find out what they are. It'd be a lot nicer if I could swoop through and see "grv: git repository viewer. netop: network topology visualizer. dive: tool for exploring each layer in a docker image." etc. (edit to add: This is already prett…
Looks like they took your advice?
They did! Nice! Those definitely weren't there earlier today!

#23Earlier quoted context omitted.
This list is weirdly not that helpful. `planor`, the planetary orbital calculator, sounds cool, but it's actually "A TUI client for cloud services for aws, vultr, heroku, etc." No orbits in sight! Now I'm not sure which of the descriptions are accurate.
Yeah, and what in the world is a "temporary email"?
actually a thing, I use it whenever a website that I am most likely never going to visit again forces me to enter an email address, then I generate a temporary email address just to receive their email, whether it's a confirmation code, download link or whatever.

to whoever took your advice: please also add those descriptions to the by-category views (e.g. all macOS terminal tools)

#25This looks really nice, I hope it does well.
It reminds me that I miss https://inconsolation.wordpress.com/ ended. It had all sorts of great and humorous reviews on terminal based software.

#27I get annoyed by tools like those featured here putting the language they are written in front and center like it's a defining feature about the application. The only thing that should matter (specifically with a compiled binary distributed program) is what it does and how well it does it.
Disagree, especially in case of open source apps (which several of these are). I found one which I forked because of the language it is in.

I dont like when it is implied that a tool is better than existing similar tools because it uses language X (it is, but only fir X enthusiasts) but I want to see the language somewhere on the site front-page. I use an unpopular OS (FreeBSD) and compile a lot of applications from the sources and if I have a toolchain (an interpreter) for a given language installed I may try a new application, if not especially if this toolchain is heavy I would need a stronger motivation to try a new app.
