The Software I use in 2023

This is where I post my almost annual information regarding which open source software I actually use on a day to day basis. The list changes from year to year, and I think it's good for you all to see that I don't just preach open source, but I try to live it as well.

Additionally, I support multiple projects in the open source community monetarily, and some through code support, such as Quant UX, where I provide and maintain the docker version of that incredible software.
