I think I'm somewhere in between two and three.

Tech conservative, apparently. Although fuck big tech, you can achieve the sake thing with decentralised federated services or blockchain (in some cases).

Tech conservative. Still use Windows unfortunately.

Every attempt of me trying to use Linux on my main desktop (I do use it on other systems just fine) ends up with something not working due to Nvidia + Wayland or whatever. I kind of just want to get stuff done with my computer, and so me trying several Linux distributions rarely gets further than the experimentation stage. Windows 10 LTSC just works and whatever Linux distributions I tried eventually got in my way so much that I just couldn't be bothered anymore.

Not sure how much of a "healthy balance" Windows 10 LTSC + O&O ShutUp10 is, but I'm fine with it.

I never understood why people embrace Brave so much, I tried it a few times, but it just feels like a bloated version of Google Chrome to me with all its crypto crap. Firefox is solid, but I hop between browsers a lot, and I'm currently using the closed-source browser Vivaldi.

I even gave in to VS Code a while ago because it's widely supported with extensions for pretty much every language, framework and library imaginable. I tried JetBrains products (and I have an ongoing yearly license for their "All Products Pack") but I found some quirks/bugs where I had endless conversations with their support team not being able to fix the problem, and so I kind of moved on from that as well (except for DataGrip). My favorite editor of all time is Sublime Text to be honest, but it doesn't have good support for modern tooling anymore, and it can be quite cumbersome to get LSP to work right for your use case. I might give it another go at some point.

I guess I'm somewhere between the normie and the conservative.

you could try Vscodium. It's a truly FOSS editor, removes all that proprietary Microsoft telemetry crap.

How do you tell if someone is an Arch user? You don't, they will tell you.

Hardcore (tech)conservative here. I will survive the AI doppelganger crisis.
