PCManFM, Terminator, Chrome. I spend a lot of time on the command line, even writing code there. It's just where I feel comfortable, been using computers since 8 bit processors and DOS were all the rage.

Edit : Forgot mpv running in a tab in Termux. ( Listening to radio news. )

iTerm2, Slack, Safari with usually 1-5 tabs open at once, Robo3T, Docker, and the ubiquitous Finder. I’m a software engineer working on a web app. I’ll also have Postico and MS Teams (better than Slack for low-bandwidth screen-sharing calls) open occasionally.
