Just wanted to say that these kinds of videos are SO helpful to me. I don't always have the time to go hunting for what's out there regarding applications so I really appreciate it when I get to take a look at what others have stumbled upon. Big thanks!

My app suggestion is Frog. It functions like Eyedropper, but for OCR. Say if you watch a youtube video and there is a product page shown in the video stream and you want the full name of that product as shown in video, fire up Frog, Capture a snapshot of that title text in the frame of the video, share with Frog and there is your text for that string detected and OCRed. You can download other languages too and tell Frog which language it should attempt to OCR before your OCR the image.

Great little tool.

Hah! On the music thing - my collection runs almost literally from Beethoven to Yes and back to Black Sabbath. #LikeGoodMusic

More of this please, it seems so hard to know about these cool little Linux apps that fly under the radar. Here you can shine a light on a select handful and this allows us to see some cool things.

notetaking.. i dig Cohesion (Flatpak) which is basically Notion for Linux.

Good content, +1. I like the color picker suggestion, and especially Sigil. I have been planning to clean up my epub collection, but have been procrastinating on that (and newly added music files as well, lol). Looking forward to more of these app suggestion videos.

Hi matt! Im wondering if you heard about tumbleweed slow release and bedrock Linux.

I think you would find them interesting

Eyedropper offers many standard formats. And that's the nice thing about standards -- there are so many to choose from. 😉

Another way to edit the metadata is by clicking on the big "M" in the toolbar. Choose what data you want to add/change, and save your work when you're done.

For me great apps are not necessarily the app I use the most but it is the one that is there when I need it the most, and it gets the job done. And for that Gnome Disks is one of my favorite app. Easy to use easy to figure out, and it is a powerful program. Also serves as a GUI to mount and dismount disks which is so so much easier than mounting from the command line.

Awesome as usual!!! thanks for the info!

FYI, KDE has a color picker widget built-in. It's not super discoverable since it is a widget you need to add to your panel or desktop, but it works quite well

If you haven't tried it yet, I love Obsidian. I use it for notes and for everyday use. Kind of complicated to use, but I like it. Also can enable vim keybindings lol

[eloymelo]

I REALLY like your channel. Keep up the good work. ((:

[salmons-studios]

Top 5 "x", you got me! The Boxy program looks cool, thanks for sharing!

[DarthVader]

I'm gonna be using Eye dropper a lot.Thanks Matt.

[ImChaotic]

I'm with you on the music taste i like little of everything as well. I feel like if u just stick to one category music you are just limiting out some good music that is out there compared to being open and listing to everything.

[vitorazevedo]

This video is really useful! Great work.

Iotas is so depressing. It could have been such a game changing app, but you can only open A SINGLE NOTE at a time. Only Useless. Whole usefulness killed. Want to copy a note from one doc to another? You have to open one, copy, close it, open another, paste. Dumb.
