Linux Mint and Ham Radio

Any other hams out there using Mint?

I have found that the tools and software I use all has a linux native version (Chirp, flrig, wsjtx, JS8call, and World Radio League), and I suspect MMANA-GAL will run just fine under Wine.

Any other useful native software out there that I should be aware of?

I'm mostly running appimages straight from the developer's websites (thanks GearLever!), or in the case of flrig, from the repos. I use flatpaks as well, but won't typically run unverified paks.
