Some subset of modern Linux distro - Firefox, Emacs, Git, Tmux, OpenSSH, i3, sway... Android - F-Droid stuff

daily and both (desktop and mobile, cross-platform),

Mozilla Firefox

Well, there's the usual: GIMP. Lemmy & Firefish instances. Linux OS. Syncthing. Firefox. Inkscape.

qOwnNotes is cool and I don't hear much about it.

Also shout out to libre games. GZDoom and UnCiv mostly. But MOSTLY GZDoom. GZDoom is a platform, not a game.

Nextcloud

Don't think I've seen fish shell yet

Vlc

Syncthing.

Calibre

KDE Plasma

Vim

• GNU/Linux

I use FreeCAD for both 3D printing and woodworking design.

I use Rednotebook for my personal journal, and it's mostly satisfactory.

I use putty at work on a daily basis

Firefox, Neovim, Tmux, Various KDE applications, Nextcloud, Wine, Signal, OpenSSH

Probably many more

Darktable, OBS, ffmpeg.

This one, as well as WordPress and technically Mastodon because I post on both platforms.

I used to use Mastodon for my drawings before I discovered Jetpack for Wordpress and began posting more of my artwork there regularly.

Firefox and ProtonMail too for web and email.

Emacs

LunaSea

• Firefox
• Obsidian
• LMDE 6
• Godot
• Lutris

LibreOffice

Vorta for automatic backups of my computer https://vorta.borgbase.com/

Gadgetbridge for my smartband

• Termux
  Holy hell. So much it can do. Right now I am using it to transcode MPEG2 videos to AV1. With CRF 25, Preset 5, with a 480p30 video I get 5fps in Termux on my older Snapdragon 860. Meanwhile my laptop's Ryzen 3 3200U does 2fps.
  You can run different server applications. Some are supported natively (e.g.: Tinyproxy, Privoxy, Squid HTTP proxy, apache2, nginx, navidrome, OpenSSH, TigerVNC, rsync, xorg-server, xwayland, xrdp,...) and some can run in proot (e.g.: Jellyfin, NextCloud). If you already have some web server and want it public, there's cloudflared too, so you can access it via Cloudflare tunnel.

• RTL-SDR driver
  Allows connecting RTL-SDR on Android and starting RTL-TCP server.

• SDR++
  The best general-purpose SDR app available on Android, GNU+Linux, Windows and MacOS.

• KDE Connect
  Nicely connects phone with a computer. Data transfers, remote control, finding your phone, synchronizing notifications.

• LibreTorrent
  Great client for Android.

There's more, but those I don't use daily, or have already been mentioned.
