But Qira performs these tasks as well. I'm not saying Cutter is bad, I'm just saying Qira is better. It's more minimal, that's all and it's personal preference. Cutter might be great for most people.

P.S. You didn't need to downvote this lol. Take a little criticism ( it wasn't even criticism tbh ) ig?



>But Qira performs these tasks as well.

Qira doesn't seem to have diasm graph, fn call graph, hex editor, decompiler, etc.

Totally understand and for that you should have a look at radare (https://radare.org/n/radare2.html)

>You didn't need to downvote this lol. Take a little criticism.

I'm sure I didn't as I'm new to HN and somehow don't see downvote option. This was not a criticism tbh, more like a misunderstanding and it's fine.


Radare2 isn't any more minimal than cutter. Cutter contains all the same components as r2, it just layers a GUI on top of them.

(I find the conflation of minimalness with elaborateness of GUI a bit amusing. Like when people say that xterm is more minimal than gnome-terminal, when in fact the two have similar featuresets and xterm is if anything more bloated.)


Sure, I'll have a look at radare.


Their point is that Qira can't be compared to Cutter because they're different products altogether. Qira isn't "better" per se - it is made for a different use case. It's an apples and oranges comparison.
