Not sure if OS fits into the 'tool' category but for me it was FreeBSD where I finally found home after trying various Linux distributions, OpenSolaris, Mac OS X and Windows. I tried to gather some of the reasons 'Why?' I prefer FreeBSD instead of other OSes but I probably did not covered everything that it brings: - https://vermaden.wordpress.com/2020/09/07/quare-freebsd/ https://vermaden.wordpress.com/2020/09/07/quare-freebsd/ From 'smaller' tools I definitely appreciate that these exist (and use them daily): - POSIX /bin/sh shell for scripts - zsh shell and its completions - firefox with plugins - transmission - geany editor - also use nvi/vim daily - deadbeef audio player - mpv multimedia player - gimp and inkscape for various graphics related stuff - caja file manager (from MATE) - thunar file manager for its bulk rename feature - xnview image browser for finding similar images - audacity for simple audio modifications - rsync for its versatility in transferring/updating files - wine and dosbox for allowing 'alien' executables run with native speed on FreeBSD - ZFS Boot Environments with beadm(8) for bulletproof upgrades - Jails containers for flexible, easy and fast separated environments Probably I forgot about something - but these are most important.
