Brave is a web browser that uses components from Chrome to build a more security-conscious browser which also has an alternate advertising mechanism with revenue sharing.
Like Chrome, it's missing fundamental things.

https://www.rizonesoft.com/downloads/notepad3/
A straightforward and capable Windows text editor which also has a portable version.
This seems like a nice daily driver for little things. I shouldn't replace Geany with it though since I want something cross-platform.
It's really stupid that it doesn't have configurable shortcuts unless I want to compile it from source.

Call tips
This is a editor that does such magical things as use control up/down to skip paragraphs. I love it for in-page bookmarking, code folding, search-replace, escaped-replaces and regular expressions for selections, documents and groups of documents.

is important..I also (sometimes) use Leafpad.

Chocolatey: gimp
https://www.gimp.org/
An incredibly capable (and therefore very convoluted) image editor.
I use this:
.svg
files to .jpg
or .png
.png
files which have transparency, since mspaint.exe
can't do that.Often called "The Gimp".

A BitTorrent client.
Meant to be an open-source clone of uTorrent, it does do a very good job of mimicing it.
