Added K-9 Mail, it will eventually become Thunderbird for Android.
Added restic
+1 for k9 mail. meant to post that, been using it for years.
Hope they don’t change the ui.
Added WinNUT-Client.
Works with Synology NAS as NUT server just fine.
I recently moved to Thunderbird as my desktop mail client. No contest with Outlook, it’s so good, so fast, everything I could’ve hoped for and more! Though there’s just one thing I’m not used to anymore that Thunderbird does: replies to emails always spawn a new window. And the plugins to get the new “thread replies” are not that good in my opinion.
People are sleeping on Thunderbird and paying for email clients, so dumb.
On that note, seems good ole Thunderbird desktop isnt on the list yet!

Added KiCad.
OpenStreetMap: Alternative to google maps or apple maps.
That’s more of a webapp, but there are many OSM front-end flavors to choose from.
My recommendation would be OsmAnd [Android, iOS], which is available for Android on F-droid and Google Play, and Apple appstore:
GPLv3:
Disclaimer: I have only tried OSMAnd, but perhaps one might prefer a different of the many available front ends. Comparisons:
Android: Comparison of Android applications - OpenStreetMap Wiki
Apple: iOS - OpenStreetMap Wiki
And on that note, perhaps F-Droid [Android] itself could be included as an alternative to the play store:
GPLv3:
Great app, I use it for road trips. One word of caution for US users, the address look up isn’t optimized for US postal addresses nor is it always accurate. I find that using GPS coordinates are much better
Also posted about it too
Going to throw in Prusaslicer, Inkscape, and Pinta.
Prusaslicer: a really excellent 3d printer slicer that work with more than Prusaslicer printers. Available for Linux, Windows, BSD and Mac.
Inkscape: Vector image editor. On Mac, Linux, Windows, BSD and someone potted it to ChromeOS.
Pinta: Image painting program like MS Paint. On Linux, Mac, Windows and BSD.
I wanted to reduce the number of google apps I have on my phone, so I replaced gmail with K9mail. Originally I used fairemail, but the appearance and inbox was to jarring. K9mail had a closer design to stock gmail, so I opted for k9mail
I also replaced google calendar with
but this calendar app does have native support with google calendar to sync events (meetings from work calendar).
The calendar app suggested this app. After granting it all the needed permissions, I signed in with my account
As part of this google minimalism, I wanted a way to sync my listening history to YouTube music for song suggestions, but didn’t want to install sign into google on my phone. Also I couldn’t use my music container tab in Firefox because Firefox does not support container tabs on mobile
This app allows me to use youtube music with webview
This is similar, if you want ammoled black
If you don’t care about syncing listening history
You can use this app, it’s similar to spmp, but it will suggest you songs and track listening histoy locally without a google account
50+ posts in and no Tailscale?
It’s not the scam-type vpn that nord & co sell to idiots, but an open-source (mostly) free (mostly) peer to peer mesh VPN for your devices and computers and whatever.
Also Wireguard that it runs over
not sure it was mentioned already, but the standard unix password manager https://www.passwordstore.org/ is awesome, especially with the otp plugin.
Added:
Not an app, but an opensource service that you can run on your docker or server.
WinSCP: sometimes I need to ssh into something and manage some files. this makes that simpler by providing a file explorer GUI to do SFTP stuff.
Windows only. I wonder if there a WinSCP equivalent for Linux…
between linux hosts, I just sftp in the file browser (Caja by choice)
sftp://user@ip-or-hostname:ssh-port/absolute/path/to/storeage
like
sftp://[email protected]:22/home/user-home-directory/
or a dedicated file browser like Filezilla, or some kind of Midnight Commander or whatever it was
