Hello everyone! I know that Linux GUI advanced in last few years but we still lack some good system configuration tools for advanced users or sysadmins. What utilities you miss on Linux? And is there any normal third party alternatives?

Ah thanks, I wonder if GUI tools for this is useful. Especially if it is for system diagnostics.
I think I wouldn’t find it particularly useful, as I’m used to the quasi-programming I can do in a terminal. The shell commands take some time & effort to learn, but once you’re over that hump, being able to extract and compose information is really good. The primary shell tools I’d miss in a gui are
|,jq,awk,sedandgrep/rg, as well asfor,if,while, variables, and having everything in one lightweight window.
