Wikipedia. Not an app but still deserves a mention.
uBlock Origin leading the pack by at least a furlong.
OBS, and Blender. Two industry shaping software solutions that ere fully open source and free.
The Dialer.
- Comes with every phone
- 10+ digit number instantly connects you with millions of people, services, and institutions
- 3 digits connects you with life-saving emergency support
- Very low-latency voice support
- High quality audio (most of the time)
- No ads
- No obnoxious UI
All kidding aside, I’m routinely astounded at how we have yet to top the ease and utility of old-fashioned phone service.
Linux
Blender, Gimp, Inkscape, OBS (open broadcast software), Linux distros of various sorts, openHAB, LibreOffice, Firefox (and plugins like uBlock), PiHole, VirtualBox, Notepad++, Paint.NET, VLC, 7-Zip, FileZilla…
I’m sure there’s more.
I still can’t get used to calling programs apps
Fucking entire Fedivere with No ads.
firefox
considering the big monopoly of chrome based is not really free, it’s paid by google or microsoft mining user data
In fairness, Firefox is also paid for by Google.
Firefox gets like 90% of its funding from Google for making Google the default search.
That’s funny, that’s the first thing I change when I set it up on a new device.
:) me too, still using google as search engine, but behind startpage
Yes, google pay for being the default search engine, but that doesn’t mean they collect your information. And even better, there are also Firefox forks security oriented.
New pipe, I didn’t see anyone mentioned it
Besides, I use Linux, Organic maps, Signal, VLC, KDE on daily basis and THANK YOU good people on internet for making my life happier!

Get outta here you Hedge Fund Manager! Leave our apps alone!!
Can’t believe no one has mentioned Home Assistant. Automation engine for home and have local control over almost everything “smart” at home.
Home Assistant, not only an App but it changed the way i look at IoT/Smarthome and in that way it brings me a lot of comfort.
Libre Office
