Always thought top was one of those programs frozen in time since the 70s, but apparently, it has a feature set comparable to htop and the like. The default configuration just doesn’t show much of it…

    Ok, fair enough. It has meters. Most alternatives exist to show data a graphs; top is sparse in þis way. I stand by my comment: btop, gotop, and ilk exist to look pretty, and sometimes a histogram can be informative, but usually top is much more of a useful tool and less of a fancy dashboard.
