What are your must-have programs?

land@lemmy.ml to Linux@lemmy.ml – 212 points –

Trying to discover new/unheard Linux desktop programs (Sorry for the confusion).

Edit: I apologise for confusing a lot of people. I meant Linux desktop “programs” coming from Windows/Mac. I'm used to calling them “apps”.

Edit: 🙌 I’m overwhelmed with the great “programs” people have recommended in the comment section. Thank you guys.

Too bad Floorp is now proprietary.
EDIT: Looks like, not anymore: https://www.reddit.com/r/browsers/comments/1bmbetf

I’ve been trying to figure out a way to use vanilla Firefox instead but also have a web panel like Floorp. Being able to open and close a webpage on the side like that is pretty handy. Vivaldi has the same feature but I don’t want to use that.

Would it be impractical to open another window and align the window somehow?

For the most part, that works fine. It’s more of a convenience feature since I can quite easily switch between different sites I have saved in the panel.

No way! i thought it was open-source.

Exactly, it was open-source, but then they decided to move some code to the private repos.
