It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you'd love alternatives for?

I sometimes needed something like powerquery from microsoft excel. To like quickly get specific data from a structured file.

Krita & OpenToonz handle just about everything I need as an animator/artist, but I'm worried about OpenToonz continued development. I worry that there aren't enough people working on it.

A clean redshift application for Android, like redmoon. I found something but it's not quite there.

AirPlay projecting to other devices. I only see a tool to receive projections

Final Cut Pro. I know it’s asking a lot and I know a lot of talented people have tried and are trying to build NLEs and all my gratitude to them. But—no offense intended—none are there yet and actually accomplishing this would be #1 on my magical (no effort provided by me) wishlist.
