The Best Free and Open Source Apps!

Open source applications are GREAT because it means they don't contain any malicious coding PLUS they're free and don't contain any ads.

So, for today's video, I thought it'd be fun to showcase 15 apps that fit the bill of being both FREE and Open Source!

Enjoy!

Links have been updated yet again team!

Both URL shorteners have gone offline, so to be safe, I've just put the traditional links in instead!

A few corrections:
- Open source apps are not always free.
- They still often contain tracking.
- They can still have ads.

I really wish more YouTubers used this aspect ratio, it's why I love watching your content. It actually used 95% of my screen and doesn't have huge black bars on the side

1:00 open source applications are not always free, nor free applications are open source. the source may be open, but licenses should be considered as they tell you to what extent are you allowed to use the code with, or not use it at all

edit: great content btw

It would be great if you can cover open source reimplementations of older games i noticed nobody talks about them which makes them hard to track down at first
