For me, it’s hands down Flameshot. The best screenshot tool in the world - I’ve got it hooked up to my PrtScrn key for super easy screenshots.

I also love Kwrite as a Notepad++ alternative, and KolourPaint as a MSPaint alternative

    It’s probably Neovim. I spend most of time in a day while working on it. Its suitable for almost all code and text editing jobs.

    Also I should have to add okular which is really nice for reading pdf’s and mangas.

    The most popular that I use are:

      • -Firefox
      • -Librewolf
      • -Jellyfin (i was astonished that this piece of software wasn’t mentioned before)
      • -SMPlayer (imho the best front end for MPV)
      • -shutdown command (i use it daily)
      • -Lutris
      • -Wine
      • -Piper (to manage keybings on the mouse with a gui) (is also the only one that I found that works with my G502, if you have an alternative please tell me, i want to check it out)
      • -ckb-next (for managing leds and keybindings for my keyboard)
      • -openRGB

    Honorable mention: Molly (the FOSS version, a privacy focused client for Signal)

    Edit: Almost forgot about QEMU+kvm for virtualization

    The Caja file manager. Hell the MATE desktop environment in general is just perfect for me. Xfce is acceptable too, though the inclusion of CSD in recent Xfce releases has made me a bit more wary of it when it comes to theming.

    I also use Waterfox as my browser. A Firefox fork that has the option to put tabs below address bar (where they belong imo) out of the box without needing to muck around with the userChrome.css file.

    Based on time spent using them, Firefox, Steam, and Terraria. Wait, do games not count?

    The real answer is actually probably Gnome itself. The DE, I mean. The workflow suits me perfectly, and I even like a lot of the basic Gnome apps, although their naming convention get on my nerves sometimes (your official web browser is called “Web” and your official music player is called “Music”? But the one that makes me actively angry is calling their official text editor… “Text Editor.” C’mon, folks.)

    This has been the case for me since Gnome 3 dropped. Which was quite a surprise for me since I thought of Gnome 2 as a less user friendly, uglier XFCE and kinda hated it. I still kinda feel that way about Mate, but Memo kicks ass and it’s much better than Gnome 2 was overall.

      I prefer KDE and I’d have to echo the same. Putting K in front of everything is cringy.

        Way better UI, no hussle with configuration, flatpak support is seamless. Very good experience over all, such a smooth game adding -> configuring -> playing experience.

    The only real piece of software I don’t like is Zoom; it’s the most badly behaved app I’ve ever seen. Suck my balls Zoom, stay in your own god damned workspace.

      It’s surprising that for someone as terminal oriented as you seem, your editor of choice is viscose and not vim or emacs

        I use lunarvim quite a bit, however the application I work with has over 65k code files and sometimes telescope just doesn’t cut it. I also use a number of VSC plugins that I just cannot for the life of me get working in neovim, like the gauge.org LSP stuff.

    Thanks for the recommendation, I installed Flameshot on Windows and it’s quite a bit better than the built-in tool.

      you’re on windows, get sharex. It’s miles ahead of anything else. It’s the only thing I miss from daily driving windows.
