Are there any ncurces-based programs that can show the info I have usually in a bar and can live in a terminal?
Yeah, I personally use tmux to display battery information (the only thing I need) in my terminal.
You could try configure a fetch program, like fastfetch. For network management I use the nmtui binary that comes bundled in with network manager. I know there is bluetui for bluetooth and wiremix for a basic pipewire audio mixer, but I don’t know about anything else.
I guess, it comes down to: What do I really need to be visible and configurable in one terminal page.
