Stable (slow but steady growth)
I've been using Maxima since my undergraduate (over 10 years), now with Ubuntu20.04 lts, I become a newbie of SageMath. For a small project (both symbolical and numerical), in particular, student lab activities, Maxima has been a powerful tool for analyzing and visualizing data. (The Android version is also fantastic, but the poor keyboard.)

Mathematica is always enemy/friend. (My coworkers are all Mathematica speakers.)

🏁 Competitors: Wolfram Mathematica

👍 Pros: Easy for cli user|Lithghter

👎 Cons: Good for advanced users of computers (cli is sometimes hard for newbie)|Hard to find official references, tutors, etc
