VS Code should never be used as it now attributes all of your projects to CoPilot.

btop++ is much better than htop, customize your interface to see what stats matter to you more, and the default view is perfect for a beginner with better visuals than htop. htop was way too overwhelmed as a beginner. I just used the system monitor that came with my DE until I discovered btop++. VS Code is still Microslop with all the telemetry that comes with. Zed is pretty mature now and is a snappier experience, and vscodium is a community maintained fork of VS code without any MS bullsh*t. gimp is good, but its interface is severely outdated and a bit confusing and overwhelming coming from PS. it would take some adjustment to get used to but all of the features are there. Pixieditor is a newer node-graph based editor that has many of the mature editing features that gimp and PS have, but it has a lot more too especially with the node graph editor on the back end and the ability to create vector graphics, dedicated pixel art editor and animations, and standard digital drawing. Overall either work great, but if you're doing more than just photo editing, Pixieditor is the winner in my opinion. I won't shit on Wireshark, great tool. Linux beginner? Not really, unless you're looking at learning about networking and want to monitor your network traffic. For total beginners it's totally overwhelming and tough to understand what's going on. If you're wanting to get into IT and networking, definitely, otherwise I'd learn some good commands in the terminal, like nmap, as an example. Docker is only something I'd use as a beginner IF you want to start hosting apps and services from your PC or a home server/lab. Most apps are available as flatpaks, which are sandboxed and accomplish a similar level of abstraction, but without needing to host the service itself. Docker is great for testing out things on your desktop before deploying to your home lab, but TBH you should run docker containers on a dedicated machine for them, not your daily driver, and def not as a beginner. the more containers you run, the less resources you'll have to use your system. Keep lightweight and run only what you need on your workstation and put your hosted services on a different PC.

I don't really think any of these tools are needed for the average user, though many of them are useful if you had the need. Maybe htop if you aren't running a DE with a similar tool already built in. . I'd put something like Flatseal on here as a more universal tool that's extremely helpful to pretty much any linux user. But even that assumes you install and use Flatpaks. I think it's a fair assumption because it's a distributor that crosses distros and is sandboxed so it's better for security.

Zed or VSCodium are better than VS Code, especially Zed because it's written in Rust, so Electron isn't slowing it down
