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.

[lahvak]

Yeah, and what in the world is a "temporary email"?

[siddbudd]

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.

[Geezus_42]

Great for free trials.

I'll another favorite into this list: https://github.com/atanunq/viu

Terminal image viewer with native support for iTerm and Kitty

It's probably not a coincidence that it gets elia wrong:

> elia - A TUI ChatGPT client built built with Textual

[lahvak]

Ha, emacs is an "extensible text editor", while vim is a "powerful text editor"!
