From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Blender for 3D modeling/sculpting + rendering.

ArmorPaint for painting on 3D Models, but I learned recently about 3DCoat, and it has a Linux version…

I like listening to Podcasts (while I work on my PC) with KDE's “Kasts”. Use my Nextcloud provider to sync my listening status on the Desktop with my Android Podcast App (AntennaPod) for a flawless continuation on mobile.
Kubernetes, Docker and mpv.
Thanks for the recommendation, I installed Flameshot on Windows and it's quite a bit better than the built-in tool.

Apostrophe. The perfect, slick markdown editor.
Probably emacs, or wine along with dxvk
Komikku
I both installed kwrite and kate... whats the huge difference there? That one is more code focused and has git implementstion but still the same?
They are essentially built with the same text editing component, more specifically, kwrite makes use of kate through kparts for the editing component only, to provide a more stripped down interface as compared to kate.

I just use the one built into gnome, it's the best one I've found yet having come from lightshot on windows, it just works exactly how I'd expect it to and doesn't get in my way
As for my favourite think it's gotta be either obsidian or Vscode/ium
Well, the permanently open applications on my system are: claws-mail, Pale Moon (browser forked from Firefox), konqueror (TDE file manager), konsole (TDE terminal), and Aqualung (music player). Other good friends include kate, Inkscape, and OpenSCAD (despite its flakiness). And I get a lot of mileage out of DOSBox.
If the OP hadn't specified desktop software, I'd also name Portage.
