Free and Open Source Software

I am using Obsidian for quite a while now. I really enjoy the possibility to modify anything to my needs. What are your use-cases for Logseq (and Obsidian before)? And how are you liking the switch?

I recommend https://alternativeto.net/ since you just type in the software name and it will show alternatives rated by popularity. You can filter by many things including "open source".

I use Claws Mail for my mail stuff. It works really well with my self-hosted email server and I really like the UI and such. On Windows I used to use the mail client that was pre-installed.

For text editing I've switched to vim and emacs (doom). I usually use vim for quick little edits to things that aren't worth opening up emacs and finding it in there and I use emacs for anything that'll take some time. On Windows I used VS Code.

For a web browser I use Firefox, hardened with arkenfox/userjs. Never had any problems with it and have been using it since before switching to Linux.

At work we use Creo Parametric. I have a cracked copy of it at home, but I still prefer modeling in FreeCAD.

One of my favorite is fsearch, basically a one-to-one copy of Everything that is written in GTK

I've replaced Windows totally with NixOS(Using the ZFS filesystem as well so I can take /home snapshots and backup easier!). Been a long time Linux user, starting with OpenSuSE.

Anyways, when I did use Windows, my most often used software was LibreOffice for school, VLC for movies, QBittorrent for, well, torrenting, Thunderbird for email and Firefox for browsing(With lots of extensions). I also used Emacs a lot, and still do, here and there.

Overall, I don't really need to use much proprietary software, except for games, of course.

I guess...
