Nicotine+ is a free and open source alternative to the official client.
Lol this is going to sound ridiculous but as someone who is trying to quit smoking and constantly failing, I know for a fact that using a program called Nicotine would 100% water the seeds of addiction in my brain.
Never smoked but I despite the name and consider it a deal breaker
It is a weird choice of name, isn't it?!
so tempting to release a product called ‘nicotine’ and wait for the patches. then i would have a reason to only apply one patch a day. otherwise, i’m going against medical advise.
