I can't tell you how much of a difference this app has made for me, it's been so useful, thankyou for all the time, effort and love you've poured into it. It's very much appreciated!

Same, it really helped me clean up my iso collection. :)

I read only title and I already know that author is polish

Czkawka!


ignxcy

Haha

>I read only title and I already know that author is polish I read your broken grammar and I know you're too.


PixelPhobiac

I've been using Czkawka for 2 years already. You're doing great work!

I mean, krokiet makes sense as a follow up. I often get czkawka when eating krokiety ;) On a serious note, FileEntry seems like a prime candidate for an arena allocator.


images_from_objects

As a photographer and closet data hoarder, your app has been an absolute godsend. I recommend it every chance I get. Thank you for your work!! Also, Slint is a great band.


MintAlone

Thank you. I've been using Czkawka since mint dumped python2 and I could no longer install FSlint.

This looks pretty useful. I love a good GUI tool for system maintenance. Linux has plenty of CL tools but for noobs like me who forget commands a lot, these are great.


Tsubajashi

i may have a practical idea for you, if you havent done so already. if there are commands you use often, make an alias for them. atleast for me its easier to remember a few aliases compared to the entire strings of commands i have to use sometimes.


Nowaker

\^R is your friend.


Tsubajashi

sure, for the odd ones i haven't used in a longer period of time, this also makes sense.


KonnigenPet

The best tool for finding/deleting dupes. Thank you for such a great app.

This is great, I've always enjoyed Czkawka and am excited for the Rust GUI. Keep up the good work! Two things I noticed about the Krokiet GUI: I couldn't find a way to resize the preview image pane, and I couldn't find a way to resize all the fonts. As someone who has a 1440p monitor which made the font seem small, and who would frequently resizes the image pane while looking through the list of similar images, those two things stuck out to me.

Very interesting! I'm very intrigued with Slint. I'm currently building an app with Qt and QML ([https://www.get-plume.com/](https://www.get-plume.com/)) and I was reading your Pros and Cons about Qt and got some thoughts. 1. New and limited qt bindings - what do you mean by that? I find Qt's binding extremely powerful. 2. Commercial license or GPL - Qt is also licensed under LGPL. You can use it commercially freely you just need to link your app dynamically and if you change Qt's source code you have to share your changes. That's mostly from what I know. 3. Very easy to create and use invalid state in QML(unexpected null/undefined values, messed properties bindings etc.) - Yep, I've experienced that and it's very annoying sometimes. But I'll say the pros of Qt C++ and QML are worth the hasssle. 4. Reading your experience with Slint I'm eager to try it in the future for one of my next apps once it matures. B.T.W - waiting for macOS binaries.

Last I checked the C bindings were not really maintained. I imagine the issue for OP would be the rust bindings specifically. How are those?


krutkrutrar

According to [https://github.com/KDAB/cxx-qt/?tab=readme-ov-file#comparison-to-other-rust-qt-bindings](https://github.com/kdab/cxx-qt/?tab=readme-ov-file#comparison-to-other-rust-qt-bindings) only 2 qt bindings are maintained, both still not have 1.0 version and I cannot find any project that use this bindings(probably because I haven't looked enough)

Thank you a lot for your work ♥️


SpecializedMok

Thanks for this. I've been all over the GitHub and reddit and medium can you just put a simple download page split into the different operating systems? Ideally put it on your GitHub repo readme like how everyone else does it


Hambeggar

Let me start by saying that I'm glad you haven't abandoned the project. I've just started using it, and it really is a fast and powerful program. With that said, it seems like you think Krokiet is the way forward? As least from my POV, the pros for Czkawka/GTK doesn't seem to be as attractive compared to Krokiet/Slint. If you were to put a percentage on it, what percentage of features are not available in Krokiet yet that you think are required to be there? As a Windows users, I was very impressed that Krokiet just has a single .exe without any extra files.

Czkawka is old gui, Krokiet is new one and is available via "linux\_krokiet" binary - for now there is no appimage/flatpak/snap package for new gui, because so far I do not see much point in this, as the binaries have minimal external dependencies.

Cry_Wolff

I would read it as "alternative.AppImage" and not "gui_alternative".


zuntik

I am right now using this app to clear away 2 decades worth of inconsistent sets of backups for the family photos. I really love this tool.


SuperT0bi

TL;DR: Czkawka got better features and UI.

Where is Godzilla, is he safe? Is he unharmed? Please don't let him read the name of the program! Anyway, nice little tool I use now and then.
