Linux, Tor, and the Ballistica game engine/BombSquad game (not fully open source as stuff used for sensitive data remains closed source ๐)
Edit: forgot git lol
QGIS and OpenStreetMap for mapping
Iโve been liking Digikam and Rawtherapee (which is an awful name for the record) for photo gubbins.
Rawtherapee
I'm a darktable guy myself. I have tried Rawtherapee and was even an exclusive user of Art (RT fork) for a while, but darktable has everything I need in one package.
Definitely OpenFOAM. It competes with commercial software that costs thousands of dollars.
Currently OBS and Motrix
For games:
-
Anuto TD (found a few days ago, isn't super feature rich but still fun to kill time)
-
Mindustry (never played a game like it before, ended up supporting by buying it on Steam)
-
Supertuxkart (I love how many custom add-on karts and tracks I have)
For non-games:
-
Termux (allows me to get apk files and install Revancify for add free yt)
-
VLC (I don't mind slow updates and have yet to switch mostly because I can't find anything better that isn't more complicated than it needs to be and/or is closed source)
-
KDE Connect (I have almost always had problems with moving files from and to my desktop via cord)
I'd include something like Linux, but I personally feel that's kinda cheating because of how large it is compared to the others.
Linux, of course. But another one that I use all the time, and love to death, is SageMath. It's the perfect blend of mathematics and programming for me.
Suricata
Bulk Crap Uninstaller
I have used a lot of stuff over the years but my favorite would have to be a little command line program called cowsay. It takes whatever text you feed it and puts it in a speech bubble above a cow, hence the name.
Qgis, Firefox! Comes top of mind
Media Player Classic (I'm unsure if the latest iterations are or even if the Home Cinema edition is open source), TOR, qbittorrent, firefox, thinderbird, obs to name a few that I use regularly.
