I've seen others detailing their most used software and hardware setups. Below is my uses entry, feel free to contact me with any questions.
Software
Pop!_OS - I have been a consumer of System76 laptops for years and really enjoy what they have done with Pop!_OS. After a few little tweaks it is everything I want from an operating system. Previously I would compile everything and spend hundreds of hours tweaking every aspect of the operating system but those days are long gone.
Emacs + spacemacs - Editor of choice for my projects. I recently converted from nvim and I am still a bit rusty.
Tmux - Terminal multiplexing is vital to how I work. It allows me to split and arrange terminal sessions as I see fit. It's a great tool for pair programming as well.
ErgoDox EZ - This keyboard prevents me from having continuous pain in my wrists. I built a custom multi-layer firmware that adds shortcuts for my most used key combos and I don't even feel like I've scratched the surface yet.
Ansible - When I have ops tasks I need to perform Ansible is my tool of choice to automate it. Repeatable systems make life as a developer much more sane.
Asdf - I routinly switch between language versions depending on the project and asdf allows me to easily accomplish this. The range of things asdf supports is amazing.
Desktop
As a self admitted AMD fanboy I was thrilled when the Ryzen 3900X was announced in 2019. I have listed the parts used in my desktop below and will keep the list updated if/when things change.

YNAB (affiliate link) - You Need A Budget is a tool / methodology for budgeting that I wish I had in my 20s. You assign every dollar a job and stop living paycheck to paycheck.
