Personal note: I am not very knowledgeable on computers.
I have a new solid state drive after my old hard drive's Windows key apparently 'expired.'
The ssd is preloaded with Windows 10 because of familiarity and 'muh gaymes', but I do want to start getting away from Microsoft stuff (including the OS) on principle.
I know internet browser options are currently a bit "pick your poison." I've been satisfied with Brave and Waterfox, and previously Pale Moon (dropped for some website or add-in functionality I can't remember from years ago).
Besides that, I was thinking this might be a good opportunity to learn about current software/projects doing things properly.
So, I'll just share what programs I see among my hard drive files... 7zip, SumatraPDF, VLC, Audacity (which I recall seeing got bought), Steam, Dropbox, MusicBee (music player and manager), OpenOffice, and some game emulators for a Nintendo fanboomer.

You can check the compatibility of any game on Steam with www.protondb.com, you can use it to run non-Steam games too and that + DOSBox means you're pretty much covered on any old games.
