Wine, despite the headache that is fiddling with its configurations for specific older games to work.

Would probably say Firefox, but since many others have already mentioned it, I'll go with Nushell

Thunderbird. Hasn't bugged on me once.

Favorite? Hm... I would have to say Codeigniter (PHP framework) but I love these projects as well: Linux/GNU, VLC, LibreOffice, qBittorrent, VSCodium, Filezilla, GIMP, Firefox, Wireguard, GrapheneOS, Matrix, F-Droid.

If I won the lottery I'd donate to these projects or their respective foundations.

  • Duplicati: A backup software that securely stores and restores data across various platforms and cloud services. Supports encryption and incremental backups (versioning). Lots of possibilities, but use it to back up my PC to my NAS and the other way around.

  • Ferdium: Messaging and other services combined in a single interface. Using it for Telegram, Whatsapp and services like Home Assistant etc. Allows apps to hibernate when not in use.

  • OpenRGB: Control and customize RGB lighting effects on various computer hardware components.

  • Firefox

Arch Linux, LibreWolf & KeepassXC are the first that come to mind.

Firefox, Bitwarden, and Tachiyomi are some that I use almost everyday

I’ve been using Logseq after trying Notion and Obsidian a good bit and I’m really enjoying it. It’s a block-based note app that makes connecting thoughts together super easy. So far so goo!

Favourite, not sure. Maybe my "favourite" would be the one which would be the hardest to replace with something I like.

There wouldn't be something i can think off that could be irreplaceable. However the hardest thing I like may be FanControl.

For the browser, Firefox is very nice, but it's "just" a browser if you think about it. There is brave, and other open source chromium alternatives if it disappears.

For mail clients, I also like the Mailspring design, however Thunderbird just got a new skin and damn it looks good too.

And for the rest, I don't really know. Either I don't remember right now, or no special "like" for the software. Or I like the closed source software convenience more (I may also have no idea of an open source alternative, or an equivalent in features open source).

It depends on the usage really.
