I always forget Windows exists, and how horrible it is. This is like something from 1998.

For 2021:

1. Linux.

2. Rename files? Right click in Thunar (and/or maybe any) file manager and choose Rename... (Windows Explorer doesn't do this?)

3. Image editor? GIMP (often preinstalled) and/or https://www.photopea.com

4. Unzip? Archive Manager (often preinstalled) or sudo apt install unzip

5. FTP??? Even when I was still using Windows, about 15 years ago, I used WinSCP. Now just SSH with key authentication and/or rsync.

Doing a significant amount of web development, especially if you're SSHing into a server running Linux + need/want free software = Use Linux. /thread
