Alright,
I've just installed Ubuntu 16.04 on a laptop (As main OS)
I need your help Sup Forums,
Which Applications, Themes, Icons should I use, which are useful?
And tell what it's features are and why YOU use them.
All categories allowed.
>inb4 Gentoo or any other GNU/Linux distribution.
>inb4 Ubuntu hate.
tmux
vim
ncmpcpp + mpd - music
openbox - window manager
tint2 - taskbar
mpv - for video playback
thunar - file explorer
firefox? idk you should've given more categories there m8
I actually like tint2, going to try it out.
MPV I learned about recently, going to install it too.
>Applications
ffmpeg - codecs
youtube-dl - download videos
mpd+ncmpcpp - music (CLI)
mpv - video player
Sublime Text - text editor
Filezilla - FTP transfer
Audacious - music player (when GUI)
git - repos
gcc - C compiler
g++ - C++ compiler
Google Chrome - best browser for me
Screenfetch - muh A E S T E T H I C
rsync - for backups
VirtualBox - virtual machines, son
And a couple of programs/scriptd made by me
>Themes
Numix-GTK-Theme - cool and simple theme
>Icons
Numix Icon - cool and simple icons
Numix Icon Circle - same as above, but circles
Just to add: A couple of scripts may help you a lot sometimes, I recommend learning Bash scripting and Python.

No reason why you had to make a thread for this, but all the ubungu h8ers must be asleep. Pleasantly surprised
Numix circe and Flatabulous look pretty noice.
chromium
Mpd+mpc+ncmpcpp
mplayer+smplayer
xswipe for muh three finger workspace changing.
transmission
zsh+oh-my-zsh
Bleachbit
If you are a programmer, any ide by jetbrains/sublime/git/vim
Terminal, torrent, gtk theme?
Why does Sup Forums dislike Clementine btw ? It's super comfy and feature rich.
America is asleep now, which is why there's no haters.
Numix is the go-to theme+iconpack for stock Ubuntu.
unity-tweak-tool and the nimux PPA's
Its the only decent music player i've found so far
it uses Qt and it is not as minimal as cmus, mpd+ncmpcpp, plain mpv or deadbeef.
Flatabulous theme
Midnight commander (mc)
gvim
>Numix circe and Flatabulous look pretty noice.
That's one of my favourite combinations. I have recently switched to be the paper icon theme and like that a lot also.
Music: Spotify because I have a subscription
Images: gimp for making Memes and editing icons
Torrents: transmission
Text editor: atom (it's a bit slow but I don't wanna use sublime because it's proprietary)
General: redshift and redshift-gtk (replacements for f.lux)
MPV or gnome-mpv as a media player
Some dank wallpapers.
I use exaile.
