Browser: Zen
Firefox always and forever even if they err, and Zen instead of stock because I’m giving the Arc-trend a shot. Not sure about it yet

Editor: VSCode
I wish Atom had won but I suppose in the end both would have ended in Microsoft’s hand. I should perhaps switch to something else compatible with the extensions

Vaporizer: Volcano Hybrid
Cannabis has helped me through a lot over the years, and this is the best way I found to consume it without fucking anything in my body and with the best comfort and simplicity. german engineering ftw

Messaging: Telegram
Maybe moving to Signal once enough of the people I need are there, as Telegram is still shady but it’s the best worst I can do

Console: Steam Deck
The best of all worlds in one device. May Gabe never die, or may Valve never change

Emotional Support: Shibachon
My friend and savior in the best and direst of times. I know I’m married but if I hug my wife like that, it will absolutely crush bones :3

IDE: PHPStorm
I don’t actually like Jetbrains all that much, they have such a eurojank vibe to them, but it’s still the best I’ve used in terms of refactoring power and intelligence. Just wish they would fucking DO ONE IDE FOR ALL LANGUAGES LIKE ITS NOT 2000 ANYMORE

Organization: Notion
The best second brain I’ve tried, see my article on it. However the quality has degraded in recent years and I might jump ship to Obsidian when they ship databases properly

RSS: NetNewsWire
My current RSS reader of choice, its simple but open source and free, has nice themes, cross platform, no notes. I think Reeder would still be my favorite if it wasn’t a subscription now, but it’s worth its price, I just don’t want more subscriptions

Synthetizer: M-Audio Keystation 88 MKII
My first synthetizer and a great choice, I was really glad to have a full range of keys to also learn piano with. Not a lot of bells and whistles but I do all modelization on the computer directly so it’s enough for me
Media Center: Jellyfin
An open source alternative to Plex, perfect replacement for me and haven’t looked back once since

Phone: iPhone 12
Which I've had a while but that still works well. I'm considering switching to something fairer but haven't found an option I like yet, maybe Fairphone
