Free and Open Source Software

Firefox
Nextcloud
Home Assistant
Bitwarden
Tusky
Jellyfin
Pihole
Jerboa
As well as several others that I can't think of at the moment.

KDE Connect means that I can ping my phone that's usually presumably somewhere behind my bed or on a counter somewhere, without having to sheepishly walk to the nearest person and ask "can you call my phone I lost it :c"

Firefox
libre office
obs studio (free, not 100% sure if os)

Recently id say OsmAnd~. GPX tracks are great for long bicycle trips and the drinkng water overlay is a lifesaver!

• KDE Connect
• LibreTorrent for Android
• Droid-ify for F-Droid
• Orbot for Android (I use it mainly for running the snowflake proxy)

These two are now the first apps I install on any new device:

• Kiss launcher (simple and fast)
• Articons icon pack

Basically, my approach is to (mostly) prioritize text over icons, and reduce the colors I need to process.

Other apps:

• Brave browser (for YouTube and built-in anti-tracking features.)
• Librera (ebook/PDF reader with lots of features)
• Odyssey (local music player optimized for speed. My library is so large that all the other players were having trouble finding songs.)
• Graph 89 (TI graphing calculator emulator)
• Feeder (RSS feed aggregator)

Linux, Qtile, Firefox, Bitwarden, neovim, espanso, and others. So many great tools for those willing and able to do a little digging.

• Firefox
• Signal
• FFUpdater
• Red Moon

For me it's ViMusic. I was stuck with a shitty Spotify subscription that I couldn't afford until I found Vi. It has pretty much all the bands I like and it passed my moms rigerous examination (she listens to all of of really obscure stuff) so when her Amazon subscription ran out, I got her to start using that instead. Suck it jezzy b!

The list is too long. If I'm forced to choose 5, I guess they'll be,

1. Linux
2. Syncthing
3. Firefox
4. Neovim
5. PhotoPrism

Firefox and Helix

I really hope the Infinity dev starts working on a Lemmy/kbin app.

• Mull

• K-9 Mail

• LibreTube

• Quillpad

• Droid-ify

Neovim and Guake or Yauake for terminal emulation are both necessary for me.

• Fennec
• Xtra
• Kde connect
• Seal
• Tachiyomi
• Newpipe/ newpipe x sponsorblock
• Aegis
• MJ PDF
• Easy xkcd
• Shattered pixel dungeon
• Unciv

i3. Once I got used to tiling window managers I just can't use anything else.

Komga- manga reader

Osmand - I use this along Google maps, but it's nice to have entire regions downloaded and it shows more information than Google maps, specifically for back country stuff where you need to see every type of trail

Home Assistant

Wireguard - I love that the protocol is lightweight and secure, makes it really easy to access my home network without needing to expose self hosted stuff to the internet

Bitwarden - self hosted with vaultwarden/SQLite, changed my life and it's really easy to share logins with my partner

Immich - self hosted, the first real replacement for Google photos I've found. It has autobackup and it's really easy to share albums.

Kiss Launcher - I like how simple it is. My home screen ends up disorganized anyway so it's honestly just faster to have a recents list and a quick search feature.

• Quillpad (offline notes)
• MuPDF mini (Great simple PDF reader)
• Unit Converter Ultimate (lots of various conversions)
• Retro Music (fdroid repo for pro version, best music player hands down)
• OSMAnd (Great for fancy mapping features)
• Mull (hardened Firefox with the quickest updates of all Firefox based browsers)
• AntennaPod (best podcast app)
• Obtanium (install apps easily from sources such as Github)
• Droid-ify (better fdroid)
