Long time nnn user right now. But interested in hearing some other people suggestions in case I missed something more interesting.

    I use broot all the time and appreciate that xplr is more plugin oriented or flexible is some ways, but don’t really feel I need more than broot so haven’t given xplr a proper try.

    As you use both, would you say there’s a particular feature or task that has you reaching for xplr over broot?

      xplr I probably use more (like nnn) for the tasks I would normally reach for a GUI file manager where broot I use (probably under-use) it as a fancy tree and ls - i.e. still using standard terminal commands to actually do stuff vs just moving things around
