Hello, I would like to hear your open source alternatives for programs that we use everyday.

For me:

  • Youtube music on phone -> metrolist
  • Google maps -> organic maps Now it’s coMaps
  • Windows -> linux
  • Android -> grapheneos
  • Reddit -> lemmy (racoon client on phone)
  • Youtube on phone -> newpipe Now it’s libretube
  • Youtube on pc -> youtube-tui with mpv
  • Music offline -> yt-dlp
  • Clients for offline music -> pc: rmpc phone:gramophone
  • communication -> signal, might change to molly
  • usage of localsend and syncthing, but syncthing is little buggy for me with long name files and permissions :/
  • amplitube plugin for guitar -> guitarix, which i used to under rate
  • want to move from discord -> element, but i have to try screensharing with audio and etc.
  • maybe will try to move from yt to peertube, but i think it lacks content. I have to dig deeper

Thats my list, tell me yours :)

    Shazam --> Audile

    Microsoft Authenticator --> Aegis

    Password Manager --> KeepassDX( I use Syncthing to keep it up to date across my devices

    Weather App --> Cirrus

    Task Manager --> Task.org

    To use Google Maps links --> GeoShare

    In general there are a lot of good Apps on F-Droid. To keep it that way, please read this: KeepAndroidOpen

    Otherwise all those beautiful Apps from F-Droid will disappear.

      Do you have experience to share with the different recognition providers of Audile? I have not yet had time to test them.

        Unfortunately not, I only used AudD so far.

        I tested it with all my stuff I had in my Shazam library and it recognised everything, so I kept the default settings.
