Thread to discuss webbrowsers, important utilities, and apps that we have forgotten about previously but cannot live without. In short , all apps you want to see on the final megathread.

Next week, I will open a thread to discuss some details and thoughts with the entire community to build the megathread.

Previsouly discussions

Discussion about Contacts, SMS and Dialers app is here.

Discussion about Calculators, Cameras and Calendars apps is here.

Discussion about Manager files, Recorders, Galleries and Video editors apps is here.

Discussion about Keyboards, Notes, Maps and Music Players apps is here

Discussion about Weather, Stores, social media and related stuff apps is here

Little context

spoilerWhy not build a megathread with the best and most reliable FOSS apps too help someone who want to join on the bright side of open source?

We (because this is not from me, this is from us) need to share thoughts, ideas and all things you want to say. Dont be shy. Upvote the comments you like and agree; disagree and tell why you disagree. This is will be different from others threads because this need a proper user opinion, and your opinions will be VERY important to build this. In short, your opinions and thoughts will be the fundamental source to build this.

I will read ALL comments to build this. Even if this has a million comments, I’m going to waste time reading it. Whatever it takes.

Your opinions about it are CRUCIAL and FUNDAMENTAL, because your opinions is the main-base to build the megathread.

I need less info.

It is not Chromium?

There is no crypto?

Degoogled chromium. There is no crypto. It is a lie spread by google in the fear of losing marketshare.

There is no crypto.

I've been using Brave since it was based on Muon. It has absolutely always been about crypto and advertising. The goal was, and still fundamentally is, to eventually bring private advertising to the masses and give everyone (the ad viewer, Brave, and the advertiser) a bigger cut.

Do you mean ungoogled chromium? It has been abandoned for almost two years. Honestly, what are you talking about? You say brave, then you say 'degoogled chromium'. They are nit the same, neither is a viable FOSS option currently.
