Mine is Local Send which is a FOSS alternative similar to air drop that works across a variety of devices.
My RSS reader! I use NetNewsWire.
Adding to RSS.
I use FreshRSS to sync to Readably over Fever API.
Works very well!
NetNewsWire is amazing. I just wish they had a browser version I could use on a non Mac device.
I switched to niri about a year ago. It’s perfect for those who like tiling WMs but want a more natural flow, without constant window resizing.
Niri with waybar, fuzzel, and tessen give a pretty complete desktop.
Image Toolbox Its a photo editor with everything you need. Its really really powerful and so fleshed out. Everytime I use it, I discover something new. The only sad thing is, that I can’t donate in XMR otherwise I’ve would of donated. If you have an android, download it and try it. It’s a must have on any phone imo.
Beets. Awesome CLI tagging manager for music libraries.
Speaking of tagging, keep an eye on TagStudio
NetBird- tail scale but fully open source with web hi, built in or bring your own auth, clients for pretty much everything, and really powerful network separation and segregation functions, along with posture checks and tons more.
Variety - a silly taskbar program that changes my background randomly from my own selected sources with added random quotes. I have it set to change my background every 3 hours and the quotes every hour I think. I just can’ live without it anymore.
conduwuit, a matrix home server it is so much faster and works so much better than the Dendriter server it replaced.
conduwuit is a fork of the less “energic” conduit.rs software, and both are maintained by the community, not by the Element people, like Dendrite.
paperless-ngx, after having to turn my apartment upside down to find some paper documents.
Thank you for reminding me of this one! I keep forgetting to try it out
Navidrome, as a music server. It’s very convenient to have a central place to host your music.
My biggest issue is that it doesnt’t support multiple artists yet.
orange pi running samba as a file server. it’s behind a wireguard vpn.
huge improvement in my quality of life.
Jellyfin Sonarr Radarr Prowlarr stack
*chef’s kiss*
Add a private torrent indexer and/or Usenet and it’s perfection.
There’s also Homarr for those who prefer a nice and easy frontend to install the arr suite and more.
CIPP. Its used to manage multiple office 365 tenants so its not really useful to anyone outside of managed service providers. it makes doing shit in 365 wayyy easier than using the Microsoft portal.
Freetube.
Once they added quick playlist functionality earlier this year, it was over for YouTube for me.
At this point it has everything I need and could only use small QoL improvements to be absolutely perfect for me.
I also prefer freetube to the containerized web hosted softwares like Invidious because I sit at a personal computer all day.
Ad and sponsorblock integration is sweet too
Syncthing
Ditto clipboard manager and altsnap with the Hot-click and fancyzone style controls
Seconding AltSnap although I use normal controls with an Alt key bound to a mouse button. Special shoutouts to “Action menu” for all the cool stuff it lets you do and “Windows list” which is just a better version of Alt+tabbing if you have multiple monitors.
