What's some FLOSS software unrelated to #Bitcoin and #nostr that you love?
Discussion
NewPipe is high up my list
yt-dlp too
InnerTune is another great one, sticking with the yt theme
Syncthing is a tool I've been using for many many years & my whole digital setup depends on it now
Same! Critical tool for sure!
then ffmpeg to convert downloaded videos easily from webp
Want to love syncthing so much but it seems a bit sensitive to changes to directory structures under a sync’d folder. Have you experienced this as well?
KeePass
Newpipe, open source YouTube client. No ads, background playing, no tracking, chronological feed, less exposure to the algorithm since it does not know anything about you, so you curate stuff yourself, kinda like onboarding on nostr.
git
Standard Notes is pretty great too. Daily driver for me.
been looking for something like this for the longest time 💜 thank you ser
I was using Standard Notes until yesterday (yes, really) that nostr:npub15c88nc8d44gsp4658dnfu5fahswzzu8gaxm5lkuwjud068swdqfspxssvx suggested Notesnook 👌
What made you switch? Looks very similar to Standard Notes
Try Joplin 👀
Yes! Love me some Standard Notes 💙
handbrake
Addition: HandBreakBatch is no longer maintained, but it still works. https://github.com/taglia/handbrakebatch
I use it to convert the videos synced from my phone via Syncthing into smaller file-sized ones before dumping them into a hard drive that is also synced via Syncthing with a Pi running at home.
oh cool 🤙
gadget bridge.
Hassio // home automation
Pihole // home dns server that black holes a lot of ad networks
Pi-hole is awesome indeed <3
on my phone: libretube, innertune, VLC and simplex
on my laptop almost everything is opensource 😂 (I use Arch btw)
Arch was my go-to for a long time. Still love it <3
Whats the big advantage of Arch ? I'm not tech savy .
Very good documentation. Let's you configure the OS how you want it. Rolling releases so you are always on the latest stable version of software without the need for any major upgrades. The Arch User Repository (AUR) is very large and easy to contribute to.
Don't forget to do your updates regularly. At least every month or two.
using arch has no return, you leave arch but arch doesn't leave you 😂
* Firefly III - Great auto personal budget app, use it all the time for both Bitcoin & Fiat accounting.
* Tipi - Great homelab option, Nicolas Meienberger who maintains it is a complete beast.
* The Starr Suite of apps, Sonarr / Radarr / Readarr to fetch media on the high seas.
* Synching - Great file synced, I use it on all my devices.
I also love actualbudget.com , an open source equivalent of YNAB that you can self host.
Thanks for mentioning this. I've been a ynab user for several years and I love the methodology, but it is pricey. I'll definitely check this out.
Logseq. It changed my productivity completly

Thanks for the suggestions! Added Seal to my Obtanium 💜
Recently, MCU programming (Arduino, Trezor and etc) has been a whole lot of fun. It's interesting because it's a means of interacting with other mechanical systems and environments.
linux
ssh
tor

Because like Bitcoin, it's built to do one thing, one way, the way that works.
And like Bitcoin, most people don't recognise how important that is. Being simple and doing simple things well.
Sophistication is the main cloak of deception.
Inkscape escapes the attention of many, but it has many useful uses
Using #nostr to dig cool threads
GNU/Linux and LineageOS.
