What's your favorite Linux Desktop software?

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

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.

Can't you just use the zoom website?

Theoretically, I haven't tried. It's for a online D&D campaign, so I like having Zoom and Discord on a second monitor because my main monitor already has maps, character sheet, Obsidian for taking notes, etc.

Most of my video calling is over Teams or Discord, so I may have been thinking of Webex which used to give you a http link that would force you to download the client software and launch it.

I'd suggest Jitsi as an alternative to Zoom.

I really wish I could, though the DM is dead set on using Zoom.

Is there any reason (like, at all) for him to insist on Zoom? Also, if he's more lenient regarding Discord, Revolt is pretty decent.

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.
