like good open source, it's now forked by a community instead of having only a single maintainer eza: https://github.com/eza-community/eza
comment by arccy · 2025-10-13 · in Modern Linux tools -
I also like eza ( https://github.com/eza-community/eza ) which is a modern ls. Fish is the biggest game changer though.

exa is abandoned. There is now a maintained fork called eza: https://github.com/eza-community/eza

Is this in any way better than eza? https://github.com/eza-community/eza

exa is unmaintained, you can use the active fork eza instead [1]. [1] https://github.com/eza-community/eza

…be cool to know the differences between Facad, lsd, and eza ( https://github.com/lsd-rs/lsd and https://github.com/eza-community/eza ) aka "why do I want to try Facad rather than alternatives". No offense meant, but the latter two already…

Exa has been discontinued, probably worth switching to eza. https://github.com/eza-community/eza

Exa is unmaintained, but there’s a maintained fork called eza - https://github.com/eza-community/eza
comment by horse666 · 2024-06-15 · in Show HN: Elles – A nicer /bin/ls -
Another three very neat ones are - https://github.com/eza-community/eza (ls with some added visual sugar) - https://github.com/ClementTsang/bottom (htop but with graphs) - https://github.com/sharkdp/bat (cat with syntax highlight)

> it's very hard to salvage the work into a maintained fork. Sometimes, perhaps, but https://github.com/eza-community/eza looked pretty easy, and they even had push access to change the exa repository to point to it.

the community fork "eza" is not is it? https://github.com/eza-community/eza
comment by froh · 2023-09-07 · in Exa Is Deprecated -
> https://github.com/eza-community/eza/releases/tag/v0.11.0 > A new minor release, and the first minor release in the lifetime of eza. Why a minor release? Because we just landed windows support, that's why! Windows support, woohoo!
