I second Rawtherapee. I know there’s a lot of love for Darktable, but I personally find the results from Rawtherapee better. Both are great applications

Speaking of LaTeX, I really recommend LyX. You don’t need to know any LaTeX to use it, and the result is always satisfying

HTTPie

Using pCloud and is very satisfied. One can buy life-time storage if one prefers that over subscriptions, and it seems to be on sale almost all the time

Yes! I just could not stop reading this book. Stayed up way too late. Easily worth it

I think this happens when there’s notifications from Slack in the notification center. For some reason it does not seem to sync. Clearing in the notification center is probably going to “fix” the badge counter

Blockbuster, simply because they (at least used to have) the best pricing, though the app is not very good. Now days I tend to use YouTube more since the prices on Blockbuster has gone up. This is probably a local thing. I guess prices probably differ between diffent regions.

The Brother printer I bought recently was easier to install on Linux than on Mac. I think that says something. Always works too

Over the years XFCE is the DE I’ve used the most. Kept getting back to it. It simply does a lot of things right. That does not mean it’s my favorite, though. There are plenty of good ones out there. LXqt is one I find to be excellent, but it does not get much attention. Enlightenment too, for that matter. Enlightenment feels like it comes from a different era, but it’s quite charming. That said, I think I’m finished with these “small” environments, and will be on KDE from now on. You get the “batteries included” experience, and things generally work very well together. Sure, maybe it’s a bit more resource heavy, but I can’t say I notice.

I use this one for all my work related notes. It’s simply great. Unlike many other note taking apps CherryTree is not made with Electron. So it’s both powerful and very light

I really like Taskito, and have been using it for quite a while. I think the widget looks very nice too, though I relied more on the notifications.

Recently switched to Microsoft To Do, simply because I realized it works more in the way I think. I make a plan for the day, and tick off the tasks I finish. Some tasks might not be finished (happens a bit too often, I admit), and those tasks will be suggested when I make a plan on the following day. The widget looks OK, not too exciting, but clean enough.

“flatsnap”. This made my day
