What programs do you wish a good FOSS alternative existed, but doesn't or most of the FOSS alternatives simply aren't good?

  • Xodo pdf annotator

    It seems all pdf annotators are allergic to letting me have

    1. The ability to change the text I've highlighted without deleting the entire highlight
    2. Several different highlighter colours and opacities

    They seem like really silly requirements, but they make a huge difference to how long it takes me to get through my readings for class.

    • What is your cat's name, and what stupid nicknames do you call them?

    Jump

  • I did still have to create a profile for my keyboard called CAT which disables all buttons for when he decides to forgo the 10000 beds and little spots he has, to instead gaze at my keyboard and think "This right here? This is mine. It is bed"

  • I think my cat prefers me when I'm wearing my myotorcycle helmet

    • Microsoft's 'Recall' feature can't be uninstalled after all

    Jump

  • That comic really reminds me of trying to degoogle and FOSSify my computer as a complete novice. Multiple, extremely frustrating times, I've wanted to install something but I genuinely have not been able to understand the installation instructions. I also don't know enough to know what the right search terms are to find out what I'm meant to do.

    I'm still trying but it's fucking demoralising.

  • Recently found a FF extension that works with RES to make the old.reddit mobile site...not a nightmare to use...

    • My girlfriend has ADHD and has is usually procrastinating studying (she has a big exam in a few months), is there anything I can do to help her with this without being prying?

  • Game soundtracks were such a game changer for me; like this music that's literally written to be in the background?

    • Man sues Apple for accidentally exposing his infidelity

    Jump

  • While I don't necessarily agree in this case, you did remind me of something Justice Kirby (an Australia Hugh Court (our highest court) Judge) wrote in his dissent in Carr v Western Australia.^1

    "He was a smart alec for whom it is hard to feel much sympathy. But the police were public officials bound to comply with the law. We should uphold the appellant's rights because doing so is an obligation that is precious for everyone. It is cases like this that test this Court. It is no real test to afford the protection of the law to the clearly innocent, the powerful and the acclaimed."

    ^1 232 CLR 138, 188 [170].

    • Some shit happened.
