Firefox. I hate how inflexible other browser are.

Speaking of which, user scripts. So useful at un-enshittifying the web. Or just personalizing it to scratch those little design itches that annoy you.

CanadaPlus ,

Others browsers, plural?

I guess Lynx exists…

Have you tried out LibreWolf? By default its a bit hard to use since it doesnt save passwords or history or cookies or anything, but you can turn all that on. Its a fork of firefox meant to be more privacy focused. You can still use your firefox account and everything im pretty sure.

Bitwarden. Otherwise I won’t be able to log on to any of my accounts.

I concur. I would never go back.

The entire world would shut down if this disappeared overnight.

I’d be out of a job too

There’s always BSD, Hurd, Darwin… or NT 🤮

Android. As bad as it is, if I had to use iOS or Linux phones it would be even worse, at least with the current state of Linux phones.

But actually, maybe if Android didn’t exist, the FOSS community would focus more on Linux phones and they would be an actually good option. Maybe Android shouldn’t exist?

Rai ,

For me it’s iOS, funnily enough. I use Windows for all of our video game machines and Linux for everything else, but I don’t use any Google products or services. After messing around on my computers all the time, I don’t want to even have to THINK about doing things to my phone to make it go. My current phone is six years old and the only reason I’m upgrading this year is to get a 120hz screen, USB-C, and for better low light pictures of cats. And a terabyte would be nice.

JackGreenEarth , (edited )

Google is a bad company, and Apple isn’t any better. Probably the best option for you would be GrapheneOS on one of the latest pixels, they have intuitive software, 120hz screens, have had USB-C for years, a good camera, lots of storage, and most importantly GrapheneOS doesn’t use Google or Apple, it’s FOSS.

Rai ,

GrapheneOS is awesome, but like I said, no google products and I don’t want to fuck with my phone at all. Apple isn’t perfect, but it’s leagues better than stock Google with app permissions and overall privacy. My six year old phone is still fully supported for at least another year, and I enjoy the OS for the very few things I do on my phone. This is definitely the best option for me.

M500 ,

My biggest concern with graphene is that I don’t really trust that my apps will work on it.

I haven’t looked into it for years, but I do need to use apps like Microsoftone drive, WeChat, banks, etc.

Even if they work I’m concerned that they will see I’m on some modified OS and block my account.

Maybe just a feature phone and tether it to a laptop?

Nice, someone else with an InputStick.

Ayy, I respect your taste.

Going back to a "normal" text editor after using Vim for a few years would be horrible

Life without qBittorrent would also be pretty difficult, hell no, I'm not paying for DRM content that requires proprietary software to watch

After 20 years on vi/m, I recently moved to vscode with vim plugin and I have to admit… I really like it.

I really like qbittorrents built in search feature.

The kernel. I can take or leave most things, but I’m not going back to the days of writing directly into memory-mapped registers.

Someone always beats me to the funniest response!

Oh, don’t worry. The guy who answered vmlinuz beat me to the joke in general :)

Python is underappreciated

deus ,

Yt-dlp. It’s basically the only way I download music nowadays.

CanadaPlus ,

Someday, when I’m not balls-to-the-wall poor I’ll actually support the artists. Until then, it’s not illegal for personal use, and morally it’s that or just no music.

PaintTool SAI 1 is my beloved, I don’t care how old it is, I love it and it’s just so comfy to me!

For those who may be wondering, PaintTool SAI is a lightweight drawing program developed by Systemax Software that was released in 2008. The “SAI” part of its name is unrelated to AI, and is an acronym for Systemax Advanced Illustrator. It was developed by one person, Koji Komatsu, and he runs Systemax all by himself. What a guy!
