My list is a bit software developer-centric, but can be useful for development-adjacent tasks too.

• The Github CLI - great for doing routine GH work, like opening PRs or filing issues.
• glab - ditto for Gitlab.
• jq - JSON parsing, formatting, searching and modification.
• pup - like jq, but for HTML pages.
• sed - A powerful text find-and-replace tool with regular expressions.
• scp - File transfers over SSH.
• xargs - run a command for every line of output from another command. Great for automating manual tasks.
• curl - make any type of HTTP (and many other protocols) request from the command line.
• tar - compress/uncompress archive files.
• pwgen - generate passwords with lots of options.
• uuidgen - generate universally unique ids.
• exiftool - read and modify image/video/audio file metadata. Good for adding/editing tags/albums/dates/etc.

Same laptop and distro here, and I agree. But still hoping to have proper sleep/hibernation, speaker/mic support and web cam in the future. It’s a shame that Qualcomm and Lenovo haven’t been more cooperative on hardware support.

I’ve got only one machine left running Windows 10 at home: a desktop PC I use exclusively for gaming. I increasingly look forward to purging Windows from it and installing Bazzite when the EOL date comes around.
