    On my laptop:

    • Void Linux
    • GNOME (desktop environment)
    • gThumb (image viewer that can do simple edits)
    • Firefox (the famous web browser)
      • uBlock Origin (content blocker that blocks ads, trackers, etc. out of the box)
      • SponsorBlock (automatically skips sponsor segments in YouTube videos)
    • Betterbird (fork of the Thunderbird email client, with various QoL tweaks)
    • GIMP (image editor)
    • Kdenlive (video editor)
    • virt-manager (manage QEMU virtual machines)
    • Celluloid (media player)
    • yt-dlp (command-line utility for downloading YouTube videos, and the basis of some graphical apps as well)
    • Bottles (if you want to use Wine to run Windows apps, without too many headaches)
    • Foliate (.epub ebook reader)
    • OBS (for screen recording and livestreaming)
    • Code - OSS (code editor, “clean” version of Visual Studio Code without “Microsoft-specific customizations”)
    • Tenacity (fork of the Audacity audio editor without opt-out telemetry)

    On my Android phone:

    Cross-platform:

    If we can count FOSS modifications of proprietary apps:

    • YouTube Revanced (the official YouTube app, but you don’t get ads, you can play videos in the background, you get SponsorBlock, etc.) (follow this guide for auto-updates)
    • Vesktop (desktop client for Discord, has Vencord preinstalled and supports Linux screen sharing)
    • Prism Launcher (Minecraft: Java Edition launcher that allows you to easily manage different “instances” of the game. Good for playing with different mods and/or versions)
    • Fabulously Optimized (modpack for Minecraft: Java Edition, that improves performance and adds some minor QoL features)

    addendum: I’d like to use Matrix (via the Element client) and Signal more, but most of the people I know are on Discord and WhatsApp instead.

  • I use GVIM everyday.

    I frequently use CentOS because that is what the embedded system I work on runs.

    I use cygwin regularly professionally and at home. Identifying specific software within it is tough, but I definitely use grep and g++ all of the time.
