> I don't know if this will replace htop for me

I kind of avoided it too, htop, bmon, iotop and nvidia-smi worked fine as it was. But eventually came across it for the Nth time and finally tried it out, it's basically all of them in one, with some nicer graphs and customization. Do I require it to do my job? No, but with it I need 3-4 tmux panes less to see the same info. Also does most of the stuff I used htop for, sorting by different things, filtering by letters and easy to kill the currently selected process.

If a text-mode process monitor is larger than about 200 KiB, then it sounds bloated to me. If it's loaded with tons of features, then my upper limit is 1 MiB.

It's slowly growing on me too. Htop is defined in my muscle memory, but more and more of my systems now have btop installed as well..

there was a time when we all reached for justplain top by default and it managed to get replaced by htop (:
