os linux (desktop & laptop), android (phone) linux (desktop), macOS (laptop) i always run the latest version of arch on my desktop linux machines, and i use the latest kali release on my personal laptop.
editor vim android studio, xcode for private use, i was using my own custom text editor. prior to implementing it, i was using emacs, and was just about to switch to vim. developing it was just an excuse to not use vim, so now i am doing the only reasonable thing and using vim as i should have done to begin with.
browser opera i work at opera for a reason ;-P
music player spotify (desktop) i use a custom solution for mobile
terminal alacritty i'm interested in building my own terminal as well... we'll see if that ever happens.
communication discord (desktop), SMS slack (desktop), gmail (desktop) for work and organizations i am using slack or gmail. since i have a dumb phone i currently only use SMS on my personal phone.
