    It has lots of info in just one screen. It's even better than htop. Nonetheless I have both installed, just in case.

    Vtop has pretty braile graphs, as well as tight vim styled key bindings.

    Gotop has most of the features of htop with an easier-to-use interface, and among the htop-like monitoring tools I've tried gotop's TUI is the most robust and consistent.
