+
+# Here are the programs I use on a daily basis
+
+These are some great (mostly free) and open source apps/programs that I use (and you should too!)
+
+## Desktop Programs:
+
+- ### Operating System:
+
+ I use [Arch](https://archlinux.org) btw
+
+- ### Web Browser:
+
+ I use [librewolf](https://librewolf.net) on a daily basis but it's pretty locked down (I like that)
+ so I use [Brave](https://brave.com) when I need to access any shit website that librewolf blocks
+ or simply need a chromium based browser.
+
+- ### Terminal Emulator:
+
+ [Alacritty.](https://alacritty.org/) best terminal.
+
+- ### Image Editor:
+
+ [GIMP.](https://gimp.org) This is a no-adobe household.
+
+- ### Video Editor:
+
+ [Kdenlive](https://kdenlive.org) is pretty crashy but eh shotcut won't even work.
+ Also it's gotten much better since 2020 (when I first started using it)
+
+- ### Screen Recorder:
+
+ Do I even need to say it? [OBS](https://obsproject.com).
+
+- ### Text Editor:
+
+ [NeoVim](https://neovim.io) is my main text editor but I've been using [Doom Emacs](https://github.com/doomemacs/doomemacs) lately. If i'm programming in Go or writing my blog I use emacs,
+ CSS/JS and stuff I use nvim. Not sure why but that's how my mind works.
+
+- ### Email Client:
+
+ [Thunderbird](https://thunderbird.net) because I'm too lazy to configure mutt/neomutt. (tutorial coming soon??)
+
+- ### File Manager:
+
+ I have both [lf](https://github.com/gokcehan/lf) and pcmanfm on my system but those are for noobs. `cd`, `rm`, `mv`, `cp` are the best things.
+
+- ### Shell:
+
+ [Fish](https://fishshell.com/) but I might go back to zsh idk
+
+- ### Window Manager:
+
+ [XMonad](https://xmonad.org/) is the best window manager and you can't prove me otherwise.
+ If you want to see my config files (along with polybar and stuff) see my [dots repo](https://github.com/MikunoNaka/dots)
+
+- ### RSS Feed Reader:
+
+ I'm pretty new to RSS Feeds though I use [newsboat](https://newsboat.org/)
+
+- ### MyAnimeList Client:
+
+ Btw, I use [macli](/docs/macli)
+
+## Mobile Programs:
+
+All of these apps are on <https://f-droid.org>
+
+- ### Operating System:
+
+ [Project Sakura](https://projectsakura.github.io/) is a cool fork of LineageOS, it's more customizable and that's what I care about!
+
+ Also I don't use GApps and (hopefully) never will.
+
+- ### Camera:
+
+ I use [OpenCamera](https://f-droid.org/packages/net.sourceforge.opencamera/) because the default cam on Sakura OS is horrible.
+
+- ### YouTube Client:
+
+ [Newpipe](https://newpipe.net/) is beautiful.
+
+- ### Web Browser:
+
+ Firefox for android is garbage, but [Firefox Focus](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browsers/mobile/focus/) is somehow the best!
+ I use [ffupdater](https://f-droid.org/packages/de.marmaro.krt.ffupdater/) to download and update privacy respecting web browsers on my phone.
+
+- ### TOTP App:
+
+ [FreeOTP+](https://freeotp.github.io/) is a great authenticator app. Best alternative to Google Authenticator!
+
+- ### Backup App:
+
+ Custom nextcloud instance paired up with the official
+ [nextcloud app](https://f-droid.org/packages/com.nextcloud.client/)
+ and [DAVx5](https://www.davx5.com/) to back up contacts.
+
+- ### RSS Feed Reader:
+
+ [Feeder](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.nononsenseapps.feeder/)
+
+- ### Reddit Client:
+
+ No longer use Reddit on phone but [RedReader](https://f-droid.org/packages/org.quantumbadger.redreader/) supremacy!
+
+- ### Email Client:
+
+ [K-9 Mail](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.fsck.k9/) is a really good email client on F-Droid!
+
+## Other:
+
+(i.e work on both platforms ig)
+
+- ### Password Manager:
+
+ [Bitwarden](https://bitwarden.com/) because it can sync between my devices.
+
+- ### Cloud Storage, etc:
+
+ [Nextcloud](https://nextcloud.com/) devs marry me!
+
+- ### Matrix Client:
+
+ [Element](https://element.io/) because I haven't really checked out other alternatives yet. Maybe I will, then see which one is better!
