TransMac. It's a tool to create MacOS install discs and USBs. It works off of a limited time free trial then you are supposed to pay.
It works great but I'd prefer something FOSS.
OSMAND, since they started tracking users a while ago on the f-droid version.
As far as I understand the app menue, tracking is an opt in.
Is OrganicMaps not a good alternative to OSMAND?
Substance Painter. Material Maker will get there but its development has stalled quite a bit.
Dating app. An app that help people metting each other based on their interest and purpose local activity. :)
found this the other day, not sure if its what you're looking for https://github.com/Alovoa/alovoa-expo :P
That's a good start. However, it could be less based on tinder. Tinder doesn't promote good relationship amd give us a false idea on relationship. :(
Apparence isn't everything. Why not also searching some friends ? Suggest some events with Mobilizon app ?
And the kind of relationship we are looking for, night stand, friend with benefit, short, long...but it will work if everyone are honnest about themselve. :)
And if there is no more than 3 peoples...let's say you have to be very lucky ^^
Two categories, broadly: any professional software, with deep features and professional quality.
I know theres audacity, but that's really not an acceptable saw.
I know theres a few cad apps, but no professional I've ever met finds the good enough.
I know gimp, and I use it, but no artist I know does; they all pirate Photoshop. Literally every one.
I like having audacity to record audio. I like having gimp to fuck with shit. I like having various cad apps to bang out organizational tools to print. These things do generally fit my use case. But I still have to help people pirate everything else and god the DRM is do fucking annoying.
Abd here's the more esoteric ask:
Not so much programs as features; Why aren't we really going all in on shit we can do that they can't? Features capitalists would never add, never support? Instead I find open source software always playing catch-up, and theres no reason it has to.
Exchange and Outlook for business use.
No nothing else comes close.
Itβs the last app in MS Office that does not have competition. LibreOffice fills ever other app well enough but nothing comes close to exchange and Outlook. Considering they are trying to kill it off with an always online website (OWA) we need foss competition asap.

It may sound boring, but I would appreciate a good open source alarm app for android.
I sometimes needed something like powerquery from microsoft excel. To like quickly get specific data from a structured file.
A clean redshift application for Android, like redmoon. I found something but it's not quite there.
