I just got a new PC with some boku specs, and am going through the process of setting it all up. Specifically, I'm going through and installing all the software that I need on a day to day basis. For me, it's the Adobe Creative Cloud Suite, the Microsoft Office 365 Suite (I know /u/ don't like either, but I kinda need them to operate), 7zip, KeePass, VLC Media Player, etc. What software would be on that list for you? What software can you not live without?

If you need a software, you can download it, pretty sure you have internet.
You don't need to bloat your computer right away.

>>c16393 can concur there, okular is such a good pdf reader for me, >syncthing is so essential. I have 4 separate devices, and keeping a couple folders with random things like dotfiles or e-books sync'd between them is so nice

I assume you're on Windows so wsl and Winget or scoop/chocolaty (Scoop is my personal choice but that was pre Winget so)
Firefox and chrome, I main a hardened FF but use chrome to open things that my setup breaks
Nextcloud sync, python 3, auto hotkey, and shareX

I also need Git, Python, and Node for work. For documents I just use Google Docs, no downloading necessary.

>>939203 If it's essential, why it is not include with your os.
