olbaidiablo,

KDE itinerary. Keeps track of all my train tickets, airline tickets, hotel bookings, etc… all offline. This is quite handy, especially for via rail in Canada as often internet can be sketchy when you need to bring up your tickets.

lseif,

linux

digdilem,

I like the energy, but this doesn’t qualify as “lesser known”

lseif,

okay, reroll. uhh… firefox?

Ooooh. So close. Care for a third try?

lseif,

hmmm… microsoft?

Nebula, the overlay network thing. It connects all of my servers together, and me to my servers.

mfat,

Shotcut helped me get rid of the heavy, bloated Premiere Pro.

7bicycles,

I switched from Shotcut to Kdenlive as it seemed a lot more feature rich to me, still FOSS obviously

mfat,

I plan to give it a try.

wild,

Have you used Davinci Resolve? Curious how it compares to that.

Andromxda,
@Andromxda@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Resolve isn’t open source. But Kdenlive might be a good alternative, it has more features than Shotcut.

The movies you watch are not made on open source stack. Does that make the movies bad?

kenopsik,

Nobody said anything about Resolve being bad. The topic of this conversation and community is Open Source, so a closed source suggestion was not relevant.

mfat,

I haven’t. Too much for my needs.

onlinepersona,

Wow, it’s not even in nixpkgs. Not very known at all.

Oh, it’s a windows app. nvm

Together with the ShareX extension (FF and Chromium), using with FileCoffee (setup script), a killer app

(FileCoffee isn’t OpenSource, but i recommend it as one of the most private host and sharer (images, multimedia, video, documents, presentations, text…), 100% free (account (free) optional), made in the EU (Netherland), best replacement of Imgur, which is a little less than spyware.)

I use also

And to turn off the bad habits and sniffings of Windows

land,

Cheers for recommendations.

I use:

  • proton VPN
  • Portmaster
  • Wintoys = Windows debloater (I also have another tool that has almost all debloaters for Windows)
  • Xnviewer = image viewer (will be checking out the one you’ve suggested)
  • CopyQ (Clipboard manager)
  • Start11 (Not open source but a good tool for taskbar customisation)
  • QuickLook (selecting a file or folder then pressing the space bar, you can view a document, video, folder, or song without having to open it)
  • HotKeyP - App launcher (I turn off all start-up apps and use this tool to launch all the desired apps with a single hotkey)
  • Flow Launcher - I can’t use Windows without Flow Launcher; it’s my universal search engine for everything.
nossaquesapao,

Never heard of wintoys. How does it compare to win-debloat-tools?

land,

It’s not that powerful but does the job, but if you want more advanced ones. This tool has almost every single one of them. With one click, you can download any debloater.

github.com/xemulat/XToolbox

Edit: it also has windows optimiser tools.

Zerush,
@Zerush@lemmy.ml avatar

Instead of Start11, use Rainmeter (FOSS), to customize not only the taskbar, but almost the whole UI + all kind of widgets. You can create your own skin (scripts), or use one of the hundreds made by the community in Deviantart and other sites (links in the homepage). Complete Wiki and tutorils. Before i forgot that i use also FreeTube and SMplayer as externplayer, if FreeTube fails, Gimp and Krita, but i think that these are already well known apps.

Loomio

It’s project management software made by and for worker cooperatives. It’s useful for any kind of organization where you want to be able to scale without introducing management hierarchy, want members to be able to come and go, and just generally value transparency and spontaneity.

ChaoticEntropy,
@ChaoticEntropy@feddit.uk avatar

Is it free? It’s suggesting a free trial.

DinosaurThussy,
@DinosaurThussy@hexbear.net avatar

It’s open source, so you can use their official hosted service or you can self host for free.

tutus,

It’s not free for cloud use, but it’s free if you self host it.

Nice, thanks.

Wox + built-in Everything search is incredibly quick and powerful

land,

Flow launcher + Everything even better.

@JamesConeZone@hexbear.net avatar

Nice! I’ll check it out

  • RiMusic basically saves me about 6 bucks a month from spotify subscription lol

Grayjay isn’t open source

ShadowCat,
isthereanydeal,

It is open source. But the license is not foss at the moment. They expresed their desire to make something that send revenue to creators

chebra,
@chebra@mstdn.io avatar

@isthereanydeal therefore it's not open source. See for something to be called "open source" it needs a bit more than just for the code to be readable. The only people who define open source as source readable are the people who don't want to create open source software.

isthereanydeal,

There’s a clear difference between open source and free open source software. It is open source but the licence is not “free”. Not entirely at least

chebra,
@chebra@mstdn.io avatar

@isthereanydeal Nope. That distinction only appeared when big companies kinda became afraid of open source software, so they wanted to redefine the term, create some confusion, corrupt it..

isthereanydeal,

You may have a point but there’s a difference anyway

heyoni,

Did you unselect your upvote?

chebra,
@chebra@mstdn.io avatar

@heyoni I'm commenting from mastodon, I don't even see any upvotes. Someone just started downvoting me because they ran out of arguments 🤷‍♂️

heyoni,

That must be why. On lemmy, like reddit you automatically upvote your own comments. Yours was at 0 probably cause mastodon doesn’t do that.

n0x0n,

Open source is when the source code is available.

Free software is when the source is available and the license lets you exercise your 4 freedoms.

chebra,
@chebra@mstdn.io avatar

@n0x0n You are wrong though: https://opensource.org/osd

> Introduction
> Open source doesn’t just mean access to the source code.

Literally the first sentence.

The definition you are using is being spread by the likes of Meta and Amazon.

n0x0n,

Taking only a part of my post does not make sense in this context.

ayam,

Actually you’re kinda right, their own license doesn’t allow commercial redistribution (kinda similar with CC:NC) which make them not open source. I personally have no problems with that though.

Showroom7561,

I switched from Mint.com to the FOSS Money Manager EX for desktop a while ago and couldn’t be happier.

valen,

I use DokuWiki for my personal wiki. Very easy to use.

derpgon,

I’ve switched to BookStack. It’s a different take on a wiki, but pretty good concept.

Bakkoda,

I just moved to Notion but Dokuwiki was my go-to for well over a decade.

fiddlestix,

Immich is the must for self-hosting photos. Bye Google.

Shimitar,

Immich is awesome but has flaws. My workflow has improved with syncthing instead.

Main flaw of immich is being container’s deployable only which hurts for various reasons, and devs priority are different from mine (that’s unacceptable/irony).

Jokes aside, immich is the best app out there to replace google photos.

But immich require containers and some basic features like sub-path support and in general folder/albums recognition is not there and not really planned clearly for the future.

Android

Audile like SoundHoud and Shazam but open source

Funkwhale a federated cloud community music streamer app

Innertune find new songs from Spotify

Open Video Editor edit videos

Heliboard successor of OpenBoard

Tubular successor of NewPipe

ZipXtract a zip extractor

Wger fitness app

Please just a reminder, consider contributing to these apps developers.

68silver,

Grisbi, for finances.

phoenixz,

Next cloud and only office. Bye bye google drive

Jellyfin bye bye Plex and Netflix

harsh3466,

How are you hosting nextcloud with only office? I’ve tried multiple times to get Only Office working with Nextcloud, and while I can get Nextcloud up and running, Only Office never properly works for me. It always weirdly edit locks files and doesn’t allow basic functionality.

mondoman712,

Paperless has taken me from various stacks of important documents strewn around my apartment, to having all of these things nicely organised and searchable.

trilobite,

Absolutely second this. Its been a game changer
