I've been using Textra for years, but there's some new protocol whose name I don't remember that Textra isn't compatible with. This results in some messages (primarily from other LG phones to my LG phone) going only to the LG Messaging app and not Textra, which is annoying. Any recommendations?

I'm interested in what applications people use, maybe I can discover some better alternatives.
Music: Spotify for streaming, Dopamine for local music.
Cloud: OneDrive. As a student, I get 1 TB of space for free.
Email: Mailspring, though I'm eyeing eM Client as an alternative right now.
Text Processors: Mostly VS Code with LaTeX, but I do sometimes use good old MS Office.
Code: VS Code again, and also IntelliJ IDEA and CLion for the respective languages. VS Code for anything that isn't C or Java related. I'm also watching the development of Oni Vim 2.
PDF: On my laptop with a touch display, I use Drawboard. On my PC at home I use Nitro PDF.
Browser: Firefox, ever since the quantum update it's nice and snappy. Though maybe I'd switch to Vivaldi when they add Sync at some point.
