My last experience with Win10 vs now:

(FOSS in bold)

Edge -> LibreWolf, Brave
Windows Mail & Calendar -> Thunderbird, Tutanota
Windows Explorer -> Thunar, PCManFM
Todoist/iCal -> fruux + Thunderbird
NCH VideoPad -> Kdenlive
iTunes, Spotify -> CDs, Audacious, DeaDBeeF, Bandcamp
VLC -> mpv, Parole
OneNote -> Obsidian Joplin + Backblaze B2
Firefox Lockwise -> Bitwarden
WPS Office -> LibreOffice, ONLYOFFICE
VSCode -> Micro
Visual Studio -> Micro + GCC + Glade
Finale -> MuseScore
NT -> Linux (obviously)
Windows 10 -> Debian, Arch Linux

And now, the online services:

Ecosia -> LibreX
YouTube -> CloudTube
Twitter -> Mastodon
Reddit -> Libreddit, Lemmy
Dropbox, Google Drive -> MEGA, Filen, USB sticks
Blogger -> Neocities, Flounder (gemini protocol)

Sorry for the long post. Here are some potatoes:

Can you post the link for Micro? I use VSCode daily and if there's an OSS version comparable/better, definitely interested.

I never could make KDEnlive work well for me, I use ShotCut instead. Basically everything else, I'm the same. Can't get away from VLC though.

Micro is just a text editor. What you'll be looking for is probably VSCodium.

VSCode is OSS. The builds Microsoft distributes are proprietary because of some telemetry and stuff like that but glorious volunteers maintain something called VSCodium, which is essentially the same VSCode but without the Microsoft surprises
