    This is not open source software, it's licenced under the Anti Capitalist Software Licence.

    I still appreciate it in this list, but the caveat is important

    TIL about the ACS Licence. Thanks.

    I thought that if the source code was available on github, it would count as open-source whatevery the licence, my bad.

      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.

      Check out last year's post for more inspiration: Last Year's Post

      Let's create a comprehensive list of open-source software that everyone should know about!

      GrayJay platform player. I use it for youtube only but it has many sources.

      Grayjay enables you to create and watch video content in your own terms, fully retaining ownership and having control over what you watch. Your content on your terms

      https://grayjay.app/

      https://gitlab.futo.org/videostreaming/grayjay/

      (Not to poop on NewPipe, but this app is better in my opinion, I swapped after their player was bugged for me and I got a bit annoyed on the devs response to not adding SponsorBlock (you can say no to a feature ofc, but he decided to add reasoning that was bad))

          There's also SiYuan, which is more Notion-like in its functionality, but open source and uses local storage.

            Is that repo not the code or does it have a (bad) license or something?

              @dogs0n Yeah the license is not open source. It restricts use, modifications and distributions. I thought people in this community would know what the name of the community means.

                Better Invizible Pro, it offers in reduced form similar features as Portmaster (DNScrypt, selective per app Firewall, apart TOR and I2P network access).

                https://invizible.net/en/

                (download it from F-Droid, not from the Google Play store, which I don't trust)

                                      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.

                                      Let's create a comprehensive list of open-source software that everyone should know about!

                                      Workrave: screen break reminder

                                      I recommend v1.11 because the v1.10 UI is very retro 😅
