Terminal disk usage analyzers

This cluster consists of terminal-based tools that visualize disk space consumption and help users locate large files or directories. Dated entries span from 2011 to 2026, but most are concentrated in 2025-2026, with only a couple of earlier outliers. The leading project by activity signal is lumadisk, while disk-ui and aed-bin have no stars yet.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 19 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
