Foss open source, or open source after Stallmans deffinition?
If the first one I’ll go for the GNU/Linux OS
would you recommend me to switch from Windows 11, if I mainly watch series on my laptop from large streaming providers? Are all streaming providers supported?
I mean you can’t do anything wrong with it, but you should be ready to troubleshoot and look into it.
I mean how are streaming sites suposed to not work? I don’t know about desktop applications, but a browser does the job, so why use a desktop application that doesn’t even support an adblocker.
TLDR: You’ll be able to watch your shows, but if you want to use GNU/Linux you should look into it a bit.
EDIT: If you consider GNU/Linux I’d strongly recommend becoming familiar with the terminal (no matter which distro you choose). Also you should ask for some beginners guide on !linux@lemmy.world or !linux@lemmy.ml
I really like wazuh. Its such a well put together product and feels like enterprise software. One of the best cyber security tools there is.
Freecad is pretty powerful, and fully functional now that they figured out their topological naming problem.
They finally did it?? I was using the thunder-something fork for a while because of that, but I always prefer sticking with the base project if I can.
It’s largely mitigated in the newest version. I also used that branch. I don’t know if maybe they folded that branch in to the main or what.
Not one per se, but I love when a piece of open source software absolutely destroys it’s competition. I’m not talking Firefox vs. Chrome or Unity vs. Godot debate (both are better, don’t @ me), I’m talking when it’s not even close, the open alternative is just industry standard.
VLC, Calibre, OBS and maybe Blender come to mind.
any video player really - though what’s doing the hard work behind the scenes is ffmpeg, which is foss as well
Ffmpeg needs more love
It’s the most loved by those who know ;)
I’ve used Calibre for so long, it’s just a great piece of software
How about the fact that a large majority of the internet and cloud services run on Linux powered systems
Blender. Probably one of the best pieces of software I’ve used ever.
Not by importance. Obviously that would be the Linux kernel, GCC and GNU coreutils, and the Firefox web browser, among some other foundational things (code to run my desktop GUI, for example).
So, I’ll say my favorite is PCSX2. Ever since they got rid of the ancient plugin architecture this emulator has been getting sooooooo much better, and it was already great! I would add other top tier emulators like Dolphin, DuckStation, SNES9X, SameBoy, and so on. I just love emulators :)
My favorites based on usage:
-
7Zip. It’s clean and has a lot of convenient features.
-
Bitwarden. I have too many accounts these days. It’s a life saver and it’s on all my devices!
-
Rufus Formatting tool. This rules. It’s great for just formatting or creating a bootable USB. Not to mention it’s portable so I can bring it with me to work.
Genuine question because I’ve used winrar forever. Why 7zip over winrar?
You don’t have to pay for the license /s
WinRAR is simply obsoleted by 7zip. Or does everything WinRAR does and more. In my case, I particularly use their context menu shortcut for checking sha256 file hash
-
OpenSSH from OpenBSD, by a wide margin.
RetroArch/M64Plus FZ
Tachiyomi.
Great app that I practically use every day.
I have tried using a couple of the forks, but always end up returning to the original.
I love that app when I have a phone. I broke my phone tho so now I’ve been using Komikku
linux, godot, blender, neural amp modeler
Mi favorito que uso todos los días y no entiendo que no lo use todo el mundo es : thunderbird
My favorite that I use every day and I don’t understand why not everyone uses it is: thunderbird
OBS Had to do some simple broadcasting at work and was surprised when I found OBS and all the features it had, all for free.
oh and grapheneos!!!
