In the past articles, I share with you modern Linux commands I use every day like htop, fd or exa . Recently, I discovered a new cool Linux tool that I was seeking for a long!

duf - simple df and du

duf is Disk Usage/Free utility tool that combines old-shool du and df commands. You can just type duf or specify mount point or device. I especially love to just use current dir dif . to check how much free disk space do I have on this partition. duf also provides rich filtering options and information about inodes utilization duf --inodes which might be useful if you use symbolic and hard links often.
