<p>I use Linux-based <ahref="../definitions/operating-system"style="color:#50fa7b">operating systems</a>. I have been doing so since 2021. As of 2023, I use <ahref="../definitions/arch-linux"style="color:#50fa7b">Arch Linux</a> as I love its lightweight and do-it-yourself nature. The AUR is also incredibly useful. For my text editor, I use <ahref="https://neovim.io/">Neovim</a> because I love the plugins that can be used along with it.</p>
<p>In terms of programming languages, I know Python really well but I am branching off to learning C and shell scripting due to the advantages of each one. C is much faster and teaches you more about how a computer thinks as compared to the easy-going nature of Python. <astyle="color:#bd93f9"href="../terminal">I also use terminal applications</a> which means that I use the terminal a lot. My preferred terminal emulator of choice is <ahref="https://alacritty.org/">Alacritty</a>. This means that a lot of the manual work that I do in the terminal can easily be automated using shell scripting.</p>

<p>I use Librewolf with two profiles (<astyle="color:#bd93f9"href="../browser/">more details here</a>). One of the profiles is optimised for browsing only and has strong tracking protection and runs in permanent private browsing mode. The other profile is used for accounts and has less tracking protection to prevent site breakage when logging in.</p>
