Many thanks OP for starting this thread and also big thank you to all suggesting Mull
and Mulch
. I was not aware of those apps and will try out both of them.
Here are some links to start from:
Mull
directly from F-Droid: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/us.spotco.fennec_dos/Mulch
only from DivestOS F-Droid Repo: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/us.spotco.mulch/ - must enable repo first!I really liked the Bromite
browser on my mobiles, but unfortunately it did not get (security) updates for a longer time. From the many discussions in the Issue tracker asking about status of the project, I could not get a clear clue about the situation, but fact is that the last Bromite
release is from Dec 2022.
From here Bromite is Dead, Use Cromite Instead I learned about and tried to switch to Cromite
, but on my 32-bit Android devices it is still very unstable.
Definitely dislike MS, generations of my workstations have small, yellow “Microsoft Free Workstation” stickers on their monitors, but VSCodium (in my case) is not really bad.
Also I really like the Xbox360 console and (as a hacker and maker) still love the first Kinnect. The Kinnect is an excellent piece of sensor-hardware, was rather cheap when purchased in used condition and it works very well with Linux.
Thank you for your detailed explanation and the wiki link 🙂. Good to hear that this (side-) topic is on the agenda.
As mentioned, I really appreciate your work around education and awareness of FOSS principles and chances
and I wish you a nice (remaining) Software Freedom Day.
Looks like a really nice and useful initiative.
I would appreciate the SFD initiative even more, if on the SFD webpage you would “live by your own words”.
Facebook and the blue bird are by no means free software, also not according to your definitions “free to study [how the program works]”, “free to distribute [copies]”, “free to modify [the software]”, “free to access [the source code]”.
So why not at least show the benefits and use FOSS social media alternatives in action?
If you need the momentum of the unfree social media, you still could do this additionally.
please see this comment above
All my real daily-use archivers were not listed in the poll, except 7zip
.
Had to select “Other”, but meant: gzip
, xz
, bzip2
, unrar
, rar
and zip
.
If you are unhappy with suggested XSane, but only want an OSS solution, I do not know a good alternative.
Although I am an open source enthusiast, there are few application where I use commercial, even non-OSS solutions on Linux. One of this exceptions is for scanning.
Background: I “administrate” some legacy Epson scanners used with my family’s Linux boxes and got them all to run with a software called VueScan, with the following restrictions:
As you see, it might be a bit of luck, if a device works out of the box or not.
Unfortunately your Epson Stylus SX435W seems not to be listed under the supported Epson devices (click red button “All drivers” to see all supported Epson scanners).
If you happen to find no solution, I suggest to use the trial version of VueScan and check if your Epson simply runs or not.
EDIT: sorry, I forgot to mention. that the VueScan GUI has plenty of those processing options you are searching for.
We always liked the Syberia series alot. Aside from all the Lucas Arts classics, we also (very) enjoyed playing the following 90/2000 (style) adventures:
Historic
Fantasy, fairy tales
SciFi
Thank you good bot, please take my social media profile.

Setenil de las Bodegas is a town (pueblo) and municipality in the province of Cádiz, Spain, famous for its dwellings built into rock overhangs above the Río Guadalporcún. According to the 2005 census, the city has a population of 3,016 inhabitants.
[…] The town extends along the course of the Rio Trejo with some houses being built into the rock walls of the gorge itself, created by enlarging natural caves or overhangs and adding an external wall.
also nice:
Setenil has a reputation for its meat products, particularly chorizo sausage and cerdo (pork) from pigs bred in the surrounding hills. As well as meat, it has a reputation for producing fine pasteles (pastries), and its bars and restaurants are among the best in the region. Its outlying farms also provide Ronda and other local towns with much of their fruit and vegetables.
Let the religious shell wars begin … again
Only right answer is of course TCSH. Not much documentation and support, ancient but still receives new bugs in 2021 (on Debian), but attackers hate it! (I love it)
My real suggestion is to learn zsh and fish (and bash). Try using them for all your purposes and in the end you will automatically find the one (or more of them) that suits you best and that you like most for your daily tasks.
I prefer AppImages on my Debian desktops as they normally simply work out of the box (download, start) and I had (many years ago) trouble with snap and flatpak.
Came here to mention “Pi”, too.
Thanks for clarifying. Unfortunately I do not know a FOSS alternative for this purpose.
Is google pay similar to PayPal?
For micro-transactions I stumbled over the GNU Taler project a while ago.
Last time I checked it was not production ready, but maybe it is worth a look?
Might be handled and freshly archived on https://archive.org/ if I understand this Message from Jason Scott correctly.
But this should not stop anyone from mirroring the Hobbes OS/2 Archive, too.
