which forth do you guys use for normal day to day scripting and programming
I am the developer of zeptoforth, which is the main Forth I am using at the present. It supports the RP2040 (particularly the Raspberry Pi Pico, but it should work on other RP2040 boards), which I have been working with lately, and the STM32F407, STM32L476, and STM32F746 DISCOVERY boards. Note that it is not a desktop Forth; for that I would probably just recommend gforth.

What is actually Forth ?
I was careful to say I was referring to Windows/Mac/Linux only, but it looks like I'm wrong - there's SP-Forth, which was last updated yesterday.
