Comment on 14 Best Command-Line File Managers for Linux in 2026 by Ravi Saive

In reply to Joe Koenig. @Joe, Thanks for the heads-up! Regarding lfm, there are actually two different projects with that name: the original 'Last File Manager' (written in Python) and a newer, separate project also called 'lfm' (written in C). The one mentioned in the article is the Python-based one, which features the dual-pane view and VFS. Also, thanks for catching that broken link for Vifm. I'll get that updated to the correct address (vifm.info)!"

Hi, thanks for the article.

Two quick remarks:
– The link for ‘Vifm’ points to ‘http://vifm/’
– You state that ‘lfm’ was “written in Python”, while the homepage says that it was written in C.

Comment on How to Use fsck to Check and Repair Linux Filesystem Errors by nikaskn

I had an issue with a Debian laptop following a power outage, which occurred before I read the article. I ran the fsck command without unmounting the laptop’s only drive. Initially, it seemed like the system was being repaired, but later, to avoid losing my data and installed applications, I used GParted to transfer the data. Currently, I am running the laptop using an external antiX Linux installation from a USB drive.

Comment on How to Create HTTPS Local Domains for Your Projects by Ravi Saive

In reply to Juan. @Juan, Good catch, you’re absolutely right. Using .local can lead to conflicts due to mDNS behavior on macOS/Linux, which is why the project recommends avoiding it. The default use of .test is intentional and aligns with best practices for local development domains. Thanks for pointing that out, I’ll update the article to make this clearer.
