After last week's [series of post](/posts/2025/06/tui-challenge-day-1/), I decided to revisit a
[post](/posts/2019/07/what-do-i-use-revisited/) from 6 years ago, which in itself revisiting a post from 19 years ago
called [What Do I Use?](/posts/2006/06/what-do-i-use/) which listed some of the software I used on a daily basis.
And, guess what? It is still pretty much the same software.
