  • tmux, htop, vim

    • I was surprised that gnome ships with comes with it in default.

    • What distros don't include tmux and vim? Ubuntu has had them for at least a decade.

      • by default?

        My work laptop came with Ubuntu preinstaled and didn't have tmux nor htop.

        Vim is not present by default in at least debian and arch. Although vi is present in every distribution I believe.

        • I can see that being the case for the Desktop variant. For the Server variant you get vim and tmux out of the box.
