Isn't just awkward that you use a different app? How do you explain?

For work, I have a work computer with a build on it provided by work.

If your work is letting/having you use something different, then explanations shouldn't be needed. If youre doing this on your own, that may be a problem.

    At my work, anybody can have Windows, Mac, or Linux. Each have an approved set of software that they can use. If it's not on the approved list, and it's something freely available and gets regular security updates, it's usually not a problem to get it on the list.

    I don't have to explain to my co-workers what software I use. Most of the time, it's cloud-based or web-based and universal, anyway.
