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.

I use most of these that you listed, except that I don't use office apps at all, and do all my documents using LaTeX in
neovim.Also, I have small helper scrips for pdf manipulation for tasks that I do regularly, like making my handwritten notes ready for printing at my office since I don't like the algo my office printer uses to convert them to B&W. I also use
sejda-consolefor merging PDFs as it has nice options for manipulating TOC during the merge.Another nice utility is
ffpbwhich is basically a wrapper aroundffmpegthat gives it a nice progress bar.Vimwith vimtex and code snippets got me through years of academic work. Such a great way to work with LaTeX.
