You could tell me
Did a quick search of this topic and I noticed that Overgrive isn't here.
It's a sync client for Google Drive on Linux that actually works without an issue (in my opinion).
It costs $4.99 but this is a perpetual license tied to your Google Drive account.
There's a bunch you can add for game creation:
Modo (NON FREE, closed-source 3D Modeling / DCC tool)
Substance Painter (NON FREE, closed-source 3d painting/texturing program)
Substance Designer (NON FREE, closed-source node-based procedural texture creation)
Pretty sure UE4 has a linux version too.
Redshift + Geoclue 2.0
It's like the F.Lux software but for Linux and also free from Software Manager / Synaptic
Gpick - Pick colours. By picking. With a picker.

I never looked this up before but I am blown away.
mps-youtube
This thing is awesome! It is streaming youtube videos or streams and playing audio only right in the terminal. You get the high bitrate audio without wasting resources playing video in the background. The best thing is it is also a UI complete with search for youtube. So you really don’t need anything else than a terminal and working audio to start listening to podcasts or music streams.
@moderators Could you pin this topic at the top of the linux section? It is quite a nice resource and extremely underused because it gets pushed down again and again.

I think youtube-cli has a stream feature?
They are not appliations as such, but I feel availability of technology such as lvm or zfs is important to include for those who understand what power it comes with.
CAM: BlenderCAM can run as a plugin or separate install.
KeePass: password management
@Eden @wendell This thing could be helpful but it gets buried again and again.
iftop - live network monitoring in the terminal
keepassxc - graphical Keepass application for linux, mac and windows

Rclone syncs to every type of remote storage under the sun including Dropbox, GDrive, OneDrive, S3, SFTP, you name it. It supports transparent encryption and will also mount cloud storage locally, so you don’t need to consume local storage. Does not require root.
