>>2016This sounds great sushi roll. I've been having an issue with passwords recently, so I could really use this.
I've been needing to start thinking of newer ones due to getting phished on some sites. Kind of my fault since I've always used the same one or two passwords for almost every site I've ever registered on, but now it's grating of these sites always making me always think of brand new ones that need letters, numbers, special characters etc. My piss poor memory won't be able to keep up.

git - because of course i need version control!
nheko - matrix client for talking to my friends
ungoogled chromium - just open so i can use discord without the privacy nightmare of having the client on my computer, also for other web apps that may not work on waterfox
reaper - my personal choice of DAW, run it through a wine bottle sometimes in case there's some (possibly pirated) plugins I want to use
steam - i also run third party games through proton, it's That Good
alacritty (zsh) - personally choice of terminal emulator!
dolphin - it's the default for KDE and although I wanna get into tiling window managers, I'm lazy
besides that I just use everything else through my browser, Spotify, Soundcloud, and Bandcamp are all websites afterall.

No.2221
>>2219> "Call me overly curious"> proceeds to be normally curious (don't worry about it)
I run it through Bottles! Which is a really shitty GNOME 3 desktop app that works really well (it runs on other DEs but get ready to deal with the GNOME 3 interfaces if you hate them). Bottles can be found here!:
https://usebottles.com/download/It may be a bit confusing, but what you want to do is create a REAPER Bottle then place the REAPER windows installer in your Downloads folder (it has to be Downloads). Run that .exe within the bottle, and REAPER will install itself to a virtual hard disk. Since I installed through flatpak, I access the virtual hard disk like ~/.var/app/com.usebottles.bottles/data/bottles/bottles/REAPER/drive_c. It has become necessary for me to create shortcuts to this directory because navigating that shit takes forever.
I only did this because I just want to use Neural DSP stuff in my DAW sometimes! Most Linux VSTs I import are totally fine.

here's some more random stuff I use:
-w3m for when I just need to open some website without getting blasted by the modern web
-neovim <3
-obsidian for note taking and personal wiki type thing. Used to use notion before but it went so far down the enshittification hole that even the sunk cost couldn't keep me in.
-legally obtained cfx garritan piano vst cuz god it sounds so good but also costs more than i've made in my entire life
-kdeconnect even though I don't generally use KDE stuff, this is extremely handy just to sync clipboard between my phone and pc, and to send an occasional file without having to bother with adbfs or god forbid usb cables

>>2023>>2016I still think that the best way to keep your password is on paper.
I have a small envelope glued on the last page of my diary and there's also one at the end of my calendar.
I keep a password paper in both although I usually only add new passwords on the paper that's in my calendar. I only update the list in my diary every now and then. I doubt I'll lose my calendar since I don't take it out of my home unless I go on vacation, but I misplace it at home sometimes because I'm kind of messy. The system works for me though.
I also have an extra list of passwords that I only use for super old games that don't have saves but instead give you a password so you can go back to where you were, like in top gear for the snes. I put that one up on my wall though, not like it's a problem if anyone sees it.

Mostly using Windows lately because of my current laptop situation, I use KeepassXC for password management with a fuckoff long master password, and MPC-HC for playing video. For SSH to manage my servers I use a web app called Shellngn so that I can connect from places where I can't connect out through non-web ports (like at work).
That said I do have a Linux laptop I use sometimes but it is too old to even watch video. But some techy stuff is just better done with Linux.
Most things these days I actually do through my phone. Notable all-day apps are Feedly for news feeds, Opera browser, and Discord.
No.2494
Every day I check rss feeds with newsboat, I use my web browser librewolf to browse the web, I communicate with my friends using element and (unfortunately) discord. I would rather use a more lightweight matrix client than element, but the only 2 terminal based clients I know of both suck. Maybe time to switch to xmpp. I watch anime using MPV, browse my files with nnn, and listen to music with cmus. I also use vim to edit text, I've experimented with various text editors and always end up back at basic stock normal ass vim. Pretty bog standard boring stuff I think.

Just the fucking browser. I am too lazy to use anything else. I also hate the browser, but the whole ecosystem with programming is too burdensome for me to care about doing anything at all. I also don't like python which is arguably the path of least resistance for getting things done quickly.
I don't care too much about computers anymore, anyway.
