Somewhat self promoting for the first two of these items as I'm directly involved. Leaving out the more obvious ones (Linux distro etc.) as they will have been mentioned. I'll stick to some of the less known things I use.

Pulsar - a community-led fork of the discontinued Atom text editor. Lemmy community
Joplin - note taking app. Lemmy community
Halloy - IRC client built in Rust and Iced
Navi - Command line cheatsheet tool
GitUI - Terminal UI git tool
Skim - Fuzzy finder
Dust - Disk usage tool (like du)

Dust has completely replaced du in my every day work. Other tools also written in Rust I make use of include Bat for an upgraded experience from cat, Tokei for quickly counting and recognising codes, and several other security tools like RustScan.

I learn about Joplin today. Thank you for sharing your list.
