What apps would you love to have open-source alternatives for? (lemmy.world)

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?

You can complete it with digikam.

Very much not a fan, it's extremely slow and doesn't do photo editing so won't show changes to my RAW files.

It has done photo editing forever, you can even edit with external software.

Maybe it's slow though. I never noticed but my collection is small.

Hmm, when I tried editing in external software it doesn't seem to show the edited RAWs when browsing in digikam, because the only way to sync that info is with XMP sidecars and those don't work well for transferring editing changes between software.

I have about 30k RAW files and the initial scan was only a few percent done after over an hour last time I tried it. Lightroom does the initial scan including preview generation in maybe 30 minutes.
