Vivaldi is not 100% open source
Also i would add qBittorrent to the "great" list, and LibreCAD to the "wish it was better" list
Are there non-FOSS qBittorrent clients? I didn't mention it since it doesn't feel like a thing. I don't count MacOS software, as there you'll find commercial apps for anything you can imagine. You can probably find a paid app to do Alt+Tab correctly.
µTorrent is the most popular non-FOSS one and its infamous for shipping woth some virus/spyware years ago. Many people who dont know better still use it.

FOSS (Free Open Source Software) is not only for free (non paid) programs, but also for open source programs.
Ah, good to know. I found the source code for Vivaldi, but it probably has some proprietary bits so you cannot build it yourself? I'll remove it from the list.
