I use most of them except for Chromium, virtual box, and jitsy. Just switched from ace-of-penguins to aisleriot since I only ever played solitaire from that collection.

I do understand why some people would think the inclusion of a card game is a bit strange. I've certainly never seen it mentioned before.
On the other side of the coin, it's refreshing to see a journalist be brave enough to take a broader view of what people do on their computer. Think of all the people that play Solitaire. Not just reserved for the older generation

I think Windows Solitaire was in the top of game charts for years

I'll try one or two things from those recommendations... thanks Mr Jerry!

GIMP does a lot, but I get confused trying to use it.  I know there are supposedly good tutorials out there for GIMP, but I'm busy (lazy, perhaps) and would want a super-simple alternative that does cool stuff too.  LibreOffice is definitely the best of the cool tools!

It's worth spending a couple of hours watching Robert Huttons YouTube videos very simple to follow.
