It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you’d love alternatives for?
Ultimate Guitar Tabs. After spending years getting a community to contribute to one of the best music resources on the web, they turn around and lock all but the most basic features behind a pay wall.
Holy shit the most painful and miserable experience is using this god forsaken site, let alone the fucking mobile app. Actually rage inducing.
i installed a filter just to remove ultimate guitar tabs from google results…
To be fair, that was forced by the music industry.
If they didn’t licence the tabs and come up with a payment system they were going to be sued into oblivion.
Is that really the case? Because you can still see all the songs and a basic set of chords without an account/payment.
