I'd add: OBS (video recording and livestreaming); Syncthing (file synchronization); Zotero (citation/bibliography management); Freeplane (mind-mapping); Nextcloud (self-hosted cloud storage); Calibre (ebook mamangement and reader)

No YouTube video like this should be taken as Gospel or set in stone, it's one person's opinion. But this is one of the most comprehensive run downs of open source applications I've seen, packing 25 sensible suggestions into less than 24 minutes without any unnecessary padding. Kudos.

i love how he says everyone should ditch whatsapp and get signal but he actively changed the search engine to google

FYI MailSpring's sync engine was open-sourced a few weeks ago.

One of the most useful Linux and OSS-related videos I've seen recently. Well done!

This is such an informative video, and the comments are equally so. Hope this is something that can be updated periodically. Thank you so much for this!

This is the first video I have seen from your channel, and I have to say you are a new hero of mine. I have been using Linux for a few years now and what you are doing is nothing short of amazing. I can't stress enough how great the open source community and Linux are. I truly believe that if people know what is available with the many distros and open source repositories, it could completely change the world of computing, and since computers basically run the world, we can change the world it's self. Please keep up the good work in opening the eyes of the unenlightened proprietary software prisoners.

Why would someone downvote this video? Unless of course, they're against open source.

Funny that he's running OBS and forgets to mention it 😂👍

This is one of the most complete listings of cross platform opensource apps that exists. Ever us Mac users are covered! Please do more like this wherever you can.

Everything that's great about this channel is covered in this video, pretty much. Great work, IG!

I love these list of Open Source program. The average users would mostly see them as free-of-charge program and it is one way to promote FOSS.

This is a great video to encourage people to move to Linux. Thanks a lot for this!
We need more of these videos. Perhaps detailing your workflow for each category of apps. Like audio production/video editing/coding/email and productivity etc...

With geospatial information becoming more abundant with things like open data from cities, QGIS is a must for working with all kinds of spatial data...it's how I integrate my bike ride maps into my videos: export a .GPX from my Strava ride, import it into QGIS, export images, and then use GIMP to cut out the background of the route, then tiles in nicely to my video editing software (sorry, a FCP X holdout, but it just works so beautifully).
