Here's WizTree which is similar to WinDirStat but runs much faster: http://antibody-software.com/web/software/software/wiztree-f...
Gosh there are a lot of these programs, aren't there? For some reason I find it really hard to read these tree map visualisations. I know the theory and all that, but for me they just aren't an intuitive way of displaying that kind of information. For me a radial graph (i.e. pie chart like) is much easier to grok - I don't even have to think about it, I just get it. Seems like there must be plenty of people who don't…

ncdu works well and is pretty fast.
Yeah i use it all the time and is one of the programs that makes me question my use of GUIs for anything beyond media players and web browsing.
cmus, MOC, and mpg123/ogg123
I know what you mean. I'm building a terminal-based semantic web app after having started out in Ruby on Rails because I was finding I couldn't think about the app itself because of all the web stuff getting in the way not to mention prevaricating about what front-end framework to use and to Webpack or not Webpack and on and on. I would use a console version of Rails in a flash.
Anything like this, but ncurses based?
My google-fu is failing me, but there is a tool that can parse the output of du and present it graphically (written in Tk I think) which can be useful for headless systems.
For Linux/KDE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filelight I find it looks better and it has some dolphin (file manager) integration.

The DaisyDisk website is surprisingly ugly and does not do their app justice. Here's what the app looks like: http://www.creativeapplications.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/... Ever since I've ditched macOS I've been waiting to find a similarly designed app for Windows. EDIT: Just tried Diskitude, but it's unfortunately nothing like DaisyDisk. It doesn't do the same drill-down DD does.
It hasn't been updated since a long time, but it works decently.
