Watch out for "awesome" lists.

Hey that's so cool!!! I never thought I'd see my list posted around :)

Is it just the name you're wary of or is there something you'd like me to change about it? I'm still working on it when I find new things or stuff changes but I mostly ran out of categories I have knowledge of :(

I think they mean "watch out" as in "keep an eye out for" rather than "be careful of".

On a different note I love that you have Pulsar on there :), I'm one of the team working on it so its always nice to see it mentioned in places.

Oh yea, that makes a lot more sense :)

For sure! Super cool meeting you here. I love the work you're doing. Sadly at the moment I can't switch full-time yet (mainly on Wayland HiDPI displays) but I'm always checking the progress on good Wayland support, keep up the work! :)

Some additions to the list you might consider:

Password Managers

Strongbox (Mac/iOS)

Messengers:

SimpleX

Browsers:

Mullvad Browser

Thank you for your recommendations :)

I've added SimpleX and Mullvad Browser, I didn't add Strongbox though. I am already linking to a list containing different projects related to KeePass because I'm not a fan of adding all the clients separately. That's just going to clutter the list because KeePass has so many different implementations and clients for all the platforms.
