FL Studio, Ableton, and many VST. Yes, a know about Ardour, many LV2 plugins, and I tried it, and in somewhere moment, me liked it more, then proprietary analog. Some plugins is awesome, DrumGizmo is very well, Vitalium and helm too have good sound, and many another software is good, but for easy, fast, and really quality sound it easier make in proprietary analogs. It ones cause, why I have windows in dualboot (and yes, in Wine I haved large latency and another problems).

P.S But sometimes I still working on my music projects in GNU/Linux.

Every open source office suite.

But then again, I also hate Microsoft office.

Google's suite is the most easiest I ever used. Followed by pure vanilla markdown.

MX Player for Android (Older version preferably, before sellout, if you can find). So much better than VLC.

Japanese visual novels, because there are more of them.

Adobe lightroom vs darktable. Don't get me wrong, I still use darktable instead of lightroon,, but my god, it is incredibly unstable and everything is just harder to do.

Minecraft, but only because of the bigger playerbase and a better train mod (the train mod, however, is FOSS)

Substance Painter has no equal and neither does SpeedTree. And maybe JIRA if you have to pay for it as a business

Finale vs Lilypond. I'm convinced only the Borg actually uses Lilypond. It's obscure, terrifying and difficult to use. Maybe it's because I've been using finale for over 14 years but it's hard for me to even conceptualize how to make music in Lilypond, whereas Finale just does whatever I ask of it.

Musescore is also a good FOSS alternative but I still stick by finale.

• XNViewMP (cross platform) - no alternative, ImageMagick is shit
• R-Studio (cross platform) - no, Testdisk is not even a fraction as good
• MS Office Word/Excel/PowerPoint - obvious compatibility reasons, I use 2007 in Windows XP VM with no internet
• Filelist Creator (cross platform) - no alternative
• 1DM+ on Android over Aria2App, former can video grab from webpages like how IDM/XDM work on desktop, no other app can
• Snapseed - no alternative that is as quick and simple

I made a recent post of closed source Android apps I like, with explanations. https://lemmy.ml/post/2768094

StylusLabs Write. I've tried all the FOSS hand-written note taking apps and none of them is practical to use.

Write just works. Produces SVGs that you can view in any browser and efficiently sync via git. Amazing.

It looks like an android app from 2012 and could really use some updates in other areas too.
I also don't get why it's closed source. It's free (as in beer) and there isn't even a way to donate.

Studio 3T over MongoDB Compass. Despite the comparatively dated UI, S3T is way more capable
