What does HackerNews think of nnn?

n³ The unorthodox terminal file manager

Language: C

#32 in Android
#43 in C
#15 in Raspberry Pi
#39 in Terminal
#27 in Vim
nnn [1] seems like a more advanced tool (directory management, copying, renaming, packing/unpacking) and pluggable.

For file managers, I'd also recommend nnn: https://github.com/jarun/nnn

I found it much faster than ranger (matters especially for large folders), and the UI is pretty intuitive.

Same experience. For me Finder is simply unusable, not sure if I'm not used to it but the experience is terrible for me. So I prefer to do everything through the terminal or use some TUI like https://github.com/jarun/nnn

The only time that I have to interact with the UI is when I have to do something on System Settings, which is also dreadful.

I use nnn[0] and it has a simple plugin[1] based on dragon. I can press `;d` and the dragon window pops up.

It is an OK workflow IMO. I'm not sure if I can directly drag and drop from the terminal list somehow. Or better yet, a full keyboard workflow.
