Emacs is a way of life
Or simple life ^^
My first thought is that my work requires office365 mail and my discovery that davmail exists has been a godsend. I'm not going to install outlook on my linux pc, so being able to check those emails using any client (claws in my case) is a massive convenience upgrade from relying on firefox to login.
On my laptop/desktop, for now I'd say Strawberry Music Player because I like playing/listening to the audio files I've stored locally on them.
For my phone, it's currently Auxio for the same reason.
These are subject to change if I find something better.
I can't live without fre:ac. It's an open source project aimed at being the best and most accurate CD ripping and audio converting software. It supports Linux, Windows, and I think Mac OS as well. It's very similar to Exact Audio Copy for Windows. I'm a big music fan who still rejects streaming so I need this.

Blender.
The only reason I got into 3D is Blender. I wanted to make some models for my favorite game many years ago and the developer of that game used blender to make them. I follwed the famous Donut tutorial (the old 2.7 one) and it opened the eyes for me that blender was so much more than a modeling tool. I had used SFM before in small amounts to make tf2 wallpapers, so I guess I wasn't completely new to CG, but Blender kinda shaped in which direction I steered my life.
