Re:Bluetui – A TUI for managing Bluetooth on Linux on Wednesday November 05, 2025 @10:48AM (#45824176)
that's why I don't like network manager and bloated software in general, they try to do everything and it always come problems

You don't need network manager for bluetooth. just install bluetoothd and there you go and use bluetui or bluetoothctl for wifi, I recommend iwd, and then you can use impala, or iwctl pick up the right tool for right purpose

no everyone is using network manager. and personally I don't like as it is bloated tool trying to do everything and not being good at anything

wifi => iwd => impala, iwctl, iwgtk blueooth => bluetoothd => bluetoothctl, bluetui ... vpn => coming soon ;)

I agree on the easiness of Go, but I don't think people should always choose the easy solution. The easiness of Go come at a cost.

I still think it's better to learn Rust

bluetui author there

You can set a window with in the config file (with = positive integer) and TUI will be displayed with this width even in a large screen.

bluetui author here.

> It made me really happy how a tool so simple makes such a huge difference in terms of how smooth it is to solve a problem,

Happy to hear that :)

> if I have one tiny criticism about bluetui is the annoying fonts

You suggest to get rid of the icons ? what if they can be disabled in the config, will that fix the issue for you ?

> there's plenty of white space You can set the window width from the config file (width = positive integer) if you don't want the TUI to be responsive.
