Are there similar commands?

Yes, there are several commands similar to whoami that provide information about the current user or system. Here are a few:

  1. id: Displays user ID (UID) and group ID (GID) along with group memberships.

    id
  2. who: Shows who is currently logged into the system.

    who
  3. who am i: Similar to whoami, it shows the username of the current user along with the terminal they are using.

    who am i
  4. echo $USER: Prints the value of the USER environment variable, which typically contains the current username.

    echo $USER

These commands can be useful for managing user sessions and understanding user permissions. If you need more information about any specific command, let me know!
