A curated list of the best open source software.

TL;DR: I accidentally deleted the old repository with 107 stars, and have moved the project to GitLab because GitHub requires a paid account to recover deleted repositories. I take full responsibility for this, it was an extremely stupid mistake on my part. I deeply apologize for the inconvenience. I understand if this damages the trust in the project.

I appreciate all the support you all have given towards the project, it truly means a lot to me! For those of you who bookmarked the repo, please update it to the new GitLab page which will now be actively maintained.

If you don’t know what Open Source Everything is, see my original post. It’s my own curated list of open source software.

Update: GitHub was able to restore the repository! Special thanks to Seve from GitHub Support for bending the rules a bit. GitLab will still be the primary place where the repository is hosted.

    Any reason why Firefox is not under Browser section?

    I would personally also add original KeePass, Notepad++ and ShareX (Maybe also Greenshot). These are Windows only, but great pieces of software.

      Firefox is less private than some forks (Librewolf, etc.) and less secure than Chromium-based browsers due to a lack of Per-Site Process Isolation. Mullvad Browser and the Tor Browser are the only two Firefox-based browsers I can recommend due to their high privacy standards.

      I’m still on the fence about adding KeePass, since I don’t see anything it provides over KeePassXC. Notepad++ I will definitely look into, as well as ShareX and Greenshot. Thanks so much for the suggestions!
