We all love open-source software, but there are so many amazing projects out there that often go unnoticed. Let’s change that! Share your favorite open-source software that you think more people should know about. Here’s how you can contribute:

  1. Single Option Per Comment: Mention one open-source software per comment to be able to easily find the most popular software.
  2. No Duplicates: Avoid duplicating software that has already been mentioned to ensure a wide variety of options.
  3. Upvote What You Love: If you see a software that you also appreciate, upvote it to help others discover it more easily.

    I don’t know what google keep is and I’m too lazy to look up proprietary software while browsing this community.

      Google Keep is a very basic note-taking software. Imho its main appeal is that it seamlessly syncs between desktop browser and phone app - I use it for shopping lists.

      Other note-taking apps are much more advanced in features. E.g. I use Obsidian (sadly not open source) for everything that doesn’t need spreadsheets. Logseq, Joplin and SiYuan are open source alternatives recommended elsewhere in this thread.
