Do you use some GUI, TUI, terminal commands, plugins for other software?

Ideally, I want to find a cross-platform GUI app, preferably a FOSS one, and with as less overhead as possible, e.g. no Electron.

Yes if you don't get a real GUI you'll end up using this poor-man's imitation a lot.

Fair enough. I don't tend to use it all that much. But it is there. I tend to find I don't really need to see the graph all that much. Maybe because I'm mostly working in small teams. It's just not that important to my understanding of what's going on.

A graph view is largely superfluous 99% of the time.
