3 impressive Linux apps to try this weekend (April 3 – 5)
Apr 4, 2026 | Guides
The weekend is a good time to poke around your Linux setup without any real agenda—and that’s exactly how I end up finding apps worth keeping. This week I have three picks that cover very different ground: there’s a task manager with a surprisingly deep feature set, a network monitor that shows you exactly which servers your apps are talking to, and a system resource tool that looks like it was ripped straight out of Windows. None of these are brand new, but they’re all genuinely impressive and criminally underrated.
