There is one important thing not mentioned in the video about the colors in process listing. The column "command" has green or white text on the command name, this difference is very important when killing or locating processes because white names are the parent processes of the children with the same name in green. If we pause the video at 1:08, at the second line there is a process whith the name "/usr/bin/crowdsec [...]" which is listed another four times on green. These green processes are threads of the main process, and if we kill any of them it is possible to break the main process or cause side effects because one of the children died unexpectedly. This difference is important to know so that you can differentiate between different processes spawned by calling the same command multiple times and a process that spawns a lot of threads like mysql (11:45)
combine nmon with htop, there's a lot more data shown via nmon.. htop is more of process specific. nmon is also available in basically every package manager
Ctrl+L to clean the command line. Damn, I've been running the reset command for years 😅
Ty sir for this video.
I find the tree view to be handy as well.
HTOP is awesome. I agree.
