This seems to be affecting Windows VMs hosted in AWS, as well. I'm seeing status check failure for Windows VMs across multiple AWS accounts in our Org.

I use z[0] in place of autojump. That way I don't need to install Python solely for autojump. This is especially true, when sshing to servers.

I've moved to https://github.com/ajeetdsouza/zoxide/ from z, as it can also show you a list of matching directories using fzf

    # https://github.com/junegunn/fzf/wiki/Examples#integration-with-z
    # like normal z when used with arguments but displays an fzf prompt when used without.

    unalias z 2> /dev/null

    z() {
      [ $# -gt 0 ] && _z "$*" && return
      cd "$(_z -l 2>&1 | fzf --height 40% --nth 2.. --reverse --inline-info +s --tac --query "${*##-* }" | sed 's/^[0-9,.]* *//')"

I use the built-in QR-code scanner available in Opera Mini beta. Also, its the only browser I know that has a built-in RSS Feed reader. I use an old APK, as the newer version of Opera Mini removed the RSS functionality.

fd (https://github.com/sharkdp/fd) is the best command line search utility IMO. Its crazy fast and always found what I was looking for. If you want a GUI alternative, check out Drill (https://github.com/yatima1460/Drill). Although the development seems stalled, it works well for normal usecases.
