I write short stories in Scrivener (used to be macOS only, now also available for Windows). Commercial, but a number of unusual features, like character sheets and scratch areas to drop bits of text or research until you know what to do with them. It has a number of presets for formatting, although I haven't used the ones for scripts at all.

For short films and serials I've always used CeltX (which is annoying sometimes, but free). For articles and essays I tend to write in OpenOffice (predates LibreOffice I think, so mostly habit), which I've used for non-fiction for a very long time, going back to the first book I wrote ages ago.

I tried the Grammarly plugins for a while last year, and was disappointed with what it thought was poor grammar and I thought was good style. In particular it struggled with the fiction I was writing for various reasons.
