Haven't seen Inkscape here yet. I use it for almost every image editing thing I regularly do like cropping, stitching together, adding text and of course creating graphics from scratch.

Most used for me is Firefox (in fact I'm so used to it, it didn't even come to mind until I saw so many replies mentioning it!).

The favorite is probably git.

For the recently discovered stuff that would probably be the Astro frontend framework (and Svelte).

Also what a wonderful thread to discover stuff. Thank you all!

FFmpeg

Gnome 44, (probably gonna get roasted by Gentoo users) Nano, Librewolf, Free tube, NixOS, Gnu utils, Krita, kdenlive, Gimp Nuclear, Shredder, Gnome disks, Qemu/KVM

Edit- and test disk, it saved my ass this week. I accidentally wrote a new partion table over my hdd that had all my family photos. Used testdisk let it run on my laptop for 22hours recovered all photos and files. Shout out to the Devs for make great FOSS software

NVDA. Without it I literally couldn't use my computer every day, or do my job.

I like a bunch of OSS projects but Firefox is way up there above the rest.

• Linux (generally speaking)
• KDE as a whole
• Tusky
• Brave as a browser
• Bitwarden/vaultwarden

Tachiyomi.

Linux and GNU too :p

Libre Office

In terms of overall usage, gotta go GIMP.

No love for VLC player?!?

Firefox, probably. Though Heroic Games Launcher is getting there real fast. And currently I very often use Baby Journal, though it's an app I wrote, so I'm not sure I can really call it "favorite", but it's definitely one of my most used FOSS apps currently.

Linux, Firefox based browsers, vs code, KDE, and the fediverse.

• Git
• (Open)SSH.
• OpenStreetMap and Trekarta (Offline OSM maps for Android)

I'm only going to mention desktop software, there's too many tools and layers involved in spinning up a server.

Daily use (most used first):

• Firefox
• MRemoteNG
• Notepad++
• VS Code
• Git
• WinSCP
• 7-zip (love the tool but hate the format, storage and bandwidth is cheap now, let's just use zip please)
• VLC
• Python

It's a pretty boring list: connectivity tools, text editors, and version control are placed front and centre. That said they are great tools and I would hate to live in a world where I was limited to only proprietary products

Stuff I wish I had more time to use:

• Godot
• Blender
• Audacity
• Krita

Special mention:

• QGIS (and the whole OSGeo ecosystem)
• qBittorrent
• RetroArch (and all the FOSS emulators it promotes)
• OpenTTD
• GIMP/Inkscape (I don't need them often but I'm glad they are their!)

Going by what I use the most: Firefox, git, less, tailscale, midnight commander

Is Android a valid answer? Maybe not Google's monstrosity but AOSP (although I feel as though it's hard to extricate one from the other save for projects like GrapheneOS).

Firefox, VLC, LibreOffice

firefox and lemmy I guess

Linux, Firefox, PeerTube

Os: Linux mint, Solus, endeavour Programs: librewolf, freetube

I don't have "one" favourite but these are up there

Lemmy

in terms of time I spend in it:

• linux
• firefox
• vi

Vaultwarden

Honestly probably neko my friends and I used to love rabbit but it went to shit

Firefox and Nethack

gnu

If I had to pick only one artifact's worth: bash, probably. Otherwise:

• bash
• vim
• Linux (the kernel itself)
• Kubernetes
• Firefox
• urxvt
• Python
• pacman
• nix
• util-linux
• procps-ng
• iproute2
• iptables(-ng)/ebtables
• GNU parallel
• jq

mpv.io !
I discovered it before covid, and it is really lightweight and customizable. So many plug-ins, and they're so simple to create.
I was usually having issues with VLC or settings that he didn't have. No issues with mpv, so far.

I use Librewolf for all of my personal browsing

Blender, by far :)

Linux, Firefox, Bitwarden, Android

I got sick of corporations forcing restrictions so looked into alternatives. Learned how to do it myself & haven't looked back:

Joplin notes - use this every day synced to multiple devices Nextcloud - self hosted on a Raspberry Pi 4. Cloud storage plus syncs multiple stuff including Joplin

So many brilliant options on mobile: OsmAnd+ (nav), Antennapod (podcasts), Keepass (password manager), Obtainium (app updater). Was also enjoying Fritter/Quacker (Twitter without needing an account) until Elons recent meltdown. Also enjoying Liftoff lemmy app for Android

EDIT: hot off the press. For those interested, Quacker is back in the game. Not had chance to check Fritter yet

Yggdrasil, an IPv6 end to end encrypted networking proof of concept. There's something about it that I find so innovative that I want it to succeed so badly !

A few of mine that I use daily...

Networky Things:

• Caddy
• Tailscale
• Headscale
• Go Simple Tunnel (GoST)

A couple of personal projects:

• Skyhook (Data exfiltration server)
• Eavesarp
