Discover Hidden Gems: Open-Source Software You Should Know About

We all love open-source software, but there are so many amazing projects out there that often go unnoticed. Let's change that! Share your favorite open-source software that you think more people should know about. Here’s how you can contribute:

  1. Single Option Per Comment: Mention one open-source software per comment to be able to easily find the most popular software.
  2. No Duplicates: Avoid duplicating software that has already been mentioned to ensure a wide variety of options.
  3. Upvote What You Love: If you see a software that you also appreciate, upvote it to help others discover it more easily.

I wish i didn’t get so many sync conflicts all the time

Wait, you don't know what's causing them? I know exactly what causes mine (my own same-file-editing on different devices before they've had a chance to sync after the first edits).

It's not for good reason that managing sync conflicts is one of the hardest things :).

I don't know your exact use, but if you don't already have a device that's always online you could look into that to have it sync as often as possible.

I've also had conflicts for files generated by my notes program that change often. Those had no use though so adding them to the ignore list helped there.
