Have you thought about CLI tools to replace WYSIWYG word processors and slides? is a bit topic tho. I like RestructuredText and rst2pdf, but there is also markdown and LaTeX, and for presentations, things like:

impress.js.org/#/title
ttps://revealjs.com
marcolago.github.io/flowtime.js/

I don't know how well known are solutions like those. I haven't replaced spreadsheets entirely yet, but the rest is replaced for me.

And RSS/Atom is also tech I'm not sure everyone is aware of, and:
1) you can do it entirely from the CLI (I us Newsboat)
2) with privacy concerns is perfect, no tracking, no ads, no distractions, very lightweight.
3) You can check even reddit, youtube, github repos, etc.
