added syncthing. It doesn’t use the bittorrent protocol ( which some have said is compromised ) its fully opensourced the code is readable and uses your own authenticated private endpoint nodes for sync. its WIP ATM though.
just incase nobody had heard of this, its in the list.
- Hexchat (IRC Client)
- Weechat (IRC Client)
- Tuxguitar (guitartabs)
- Bluefish editor (webdesign)

Geany is pretty good. Some people like Eclipse. Jet brain makes a bunch of good stuff, paid though.
Oh and on virtualization VMware stuff works on Linux non free as well
added Geany, although it is gtk2 only,but at the moment that’s still fine
thanks
recommending VLC above Mplayer...really that just blows my mind.
Its not a 'best' list as such, as per the thread explanation: Its an easy transition list of popular OOTB software, mainly GUI driven, . Mplayer requires a front end selection for a start. I cant add everything, there are thousands of pieces of cool software for Linux, hence the arch software link.
From their website
There are many variants.
MPlayer-VAAPI — VAAPI-enabled version

VLC is GUI driven, themeable , multiformat good to go extremely well know cross platform player.
All out of the box.
Again, Its not a "you should only use this list" Mplayer is amazing, its also on the Arch Software link. If it really grinds that much I will add it no problem :P
which is the player that can double frames / triple frames on bluerays ?
added inkscape
Adding this post to the Challenge thread.
Thanks !
Found a new one for the Graphics category:
Krita (https://krita.org/)
It's a Digital painting program, similar to ArtRageStudio and Photoshop to some extent.
Really nice workflow for Wacom digital drawing/painting
thanks, krita is already in the list :)
Whoops, sorry
Ok, to make up for the botched post, here are ALL the libretro cores for x86_64 for Retroarch
(that means all emulators you can think of under one GUI and setup)
btw, libRETRO/Retroarch
It's a multi-emulator that works by having "cores" that basically are the proper emulators you know but in the form of some kind of plugins. that means it's super easy to set up a multi-emulator environment without the hassle of the configuration of a frontend linking to several emulators. It's the easiest way to get emulation going on linux AFAIK
that seems pretty good actually, its more of an API but seen as it looks powerful and well featured + its cross platform, il add it too the list :) i kind of wish it had a nice GUI but you cant have everything
im going to have a play with that this weekend
thanks ( you are redeemed :D )
