My desktop
I have been thinking of making this list of the applications I use on a daily basis for quite some time but I got the motivation to finish it up when @hund@fosstodon.org did a similar post.
This list doesn’t include the supporting applications that make the Sway window manager work. That deserves another post altogether. I had it set up initially but haven’t made it modular and I don’t use the power of tiling windows to its full extent either. The matter of how I use the tiling window manager, the setup and dotfiles, and the various applications that keeps it chugging along feels like another post.

Zathura is a relatively new addition and I found it via Hund’s post mentioned above. I was trying hard with mupdf for PDF files before this. Zathura is definitely an improvement.
This list is a mix of terminal and gui applications and might change in future as and when I discover better tools.
