Mission Center: A rust clone of the Windows Task Manager

The fact that it has GPU graph already makes it better than other tools.

KDE Sytem monitor has that function, too. You just have to add it to the history page (Sensors/GPU/Usage)

Task manager is one of the few Windows apps that works really well. Glad to see the design making it's way to Linux.

it better consider how you have to ctrl alt del
- You mean Ctrl+Shift+Esc? I don't see a problem with this?
The developer wrote a bit about its history
Yes, except that in Windows 11 they messed it up completely by making it laggy and adding the functionality to randomly crash itself.
Have you used Windows 10?

It's also on the AUR if you don't want flatpack

Thank you. Although I'm sticking to btop, it's nice to have the option.
THANK YOU

I think it's cool. The Windows Task Manager is not bad IMO

Well it's not bad in theory, it just runs like ass.. This version already runs 10 times faster than the real thing, sometimes I wonder what the hell is going on over at Microsoft.
- Thing is when your system is dying and nothing is responding, you can almost always trust task manager to respond because of its privileges, simplicity and the fact it's built into the OS rather than using APIs, even if explorer.exe crashes.
  
  Given there's no "ctrl-alt-f2: Imma go fix this mess" on Windows, having at least something you can rely on to not die is super valuable even if it is bad.
  
  I'm not saying this tool isn't better for system monitoring (but I would like to see something like KSysGuard), just that Microsoft absolutely shouldn't touch task manager to fix whatever's wrong with it's resource usage monitoring functionality to avoid breaking something else in it
- The Windows task manager only refreshes at a certain interval. Holding F5 will make it refresh as fast as it can.

- What's wrong with your pc if Task Manager runs like ass lol.
  
  Task Manager is like... The one thing guaranteed to run on a potato

I literally whispered "why?" to myself. Re-Write windows in rust! LMAO

I'll save this quote for future uses, thank you

Oh wow, this is really nice. I was using System Monitoring Center but this is so much nicer. My only complaint is no CPU temperature display but that's not a huge loss.

Windows had 2 pieces of software that didn't have a better alternative in Linux, now I just gotta find something like Notepad++ and I'm good.

https://notepadqq.com/s/
- That looks cool
How about Vscodium?
- Nah, I'm looking for a nice text editor, not a full on IDE. Something I can quickly open to change config files and stuff that has good formatting and can also auto detect the formating. By the time vscode boots up I have gotten bored and done the changes in nano.
Maybe something like vim or emacs? Idk if they have tabs for different open files though
- Yep, in Vim you can have different tabs (buffers) opened and switch between them
- I have tried both and I absolutely don't understand why people use those. Most IDEs work better in my opinion and for just editing text files nano is better. A lot of people way smarter than me use em but I don't see the appeal.
For a good task manager, btop is really good.

Editor: helix
What does notepad++ offer that other tools don't?
- Nice formating for config files and instant boot up when opening said files.
Have you tried Geany? It's been my go-to editor.

Cool, one of the few things I miss from Windows.

Guys do you have a memory leak? When it is open, it consumes around 200 MB of RAM. After a while it reaches 800 MB

How long is "a while"? I've had it open for around 30 minutes now and I'm not seeing what you're describing. Around the 15 minute mark I also tried clicking through various tabs, performing some actions, etc. and memory usage is still staying steady at 247MiB.
- Eh, what is it doing that requires 200MB+ memory?

I feel like the design of this fits better with the gnome desktop than gnome system monitor

Looks good. Anyone knows if there are .deb's somewhere?

TBH, I'm not likely to use flatpak untill I absolutely have to, and with $meta+= exec htop in my .i3/config I'm not exactly the primary audience.

(By the way, that's nothing against the author's decision to go "flatpak first", I fully support whatever choice they make as long as the project is F/LOSS. I don't have the resources to help so I'm happy to wait until the project grows enough until the deb appears..)

What is wrong with flat pack? I heard they were good

(noob question probably)
- that is can of worms. not regular worms a mix of different earth worms that only wormologits can tell apart

Haha this is fun project. Youtuber 'Dave's Garage' spend years with annual six figures to create this tool.

Imagine launching a flatpak when your computer is already overloaded 💀

Are flatpaks really that bad? Why would they even require more resources?
- Because they load their own copy of all libraries, 300MB of Gnome and whatnot, just to display you a task manager?
- Thats not true
Nothing stopping anyone from building the source and running against native libraries is there?

Show this to Dave Plumber

I think he would definitely appreciate this

Nice. I was looking for some GUI helper in Linux similar to Device Manager

And here I would always immediately replace it with Process Explorer back when I still had to use Windows.

Got this setup and running on my Steam Deck. Really really cool. Love how clean it looks.

Great design! Was looking a good, easy to use process manager on Linux. Thank you!

This looks phenomenal-looking. That graph widget should be standardized too.

Looks great 😸 Useful for a quick Overview I wish there would be something like Crystal Disk Info for Linux or hwinfo 🤔

Aaaw, nice, I was looking for something like this 👍👍👍.

Any Void src templates available?

Nice. I was using System Monitoring Center, but that’s based on Python and it uses a bit too much system resources, in my opinion. It’s pretty, though.
