Great! Fuck the chromium monopoly
On my laptop/desktop, for now I’d say Strawberry Music Player because I like playing/listening to the audio files I’ve stored locally on them.
For my phone, it’s currently Auxio for the same reason.
These are subject to change if I find something better.
My penis
Dang, I’m getting a complex ‘cause people be downvotin’ my penis.
Linux, seriously, it’s in my phone, my router, my desktop, my ISP and nearly the entire infrastructure of the internet upon which I rely uses it.
Emacs.
Emacs is a way of life
Vi/Vim - had it on every computer I’ve owned or used since about 1991.
Vi for me too. Mostly because I’m trapped and cannot exit it.
Just head down to the basement, find the circuit breakers for your building and flip them all to off for 10 seconds. That usually gets you out of Vi.
That unfortunately appears to be the best way to exit. Please tell me if you know a better method.

For any Linux users, ANGRYsearch and Fsearch are pretty good alternatives to Everything, fd is great for the command line
Nextcloud.
Does everything from GSuite that I need it to, but without looking through everything I upload, and analyzing it for advertising and other purposes that I wouldn’t consent to.

Twenty, even fifteen years ago I would’ve said Windows Notepad / vim. Now I rarely use basic text editors.
I don’t think there’s any technology that can never be superseded.
