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.

I love pulsar! I'm still using it, Thank you for keeping it up

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.

Oh that's awesome! I have had Awesome Windows lists before but hadn't stumbled across one on Codeberg yet. Nice.

Can you be more specific. Alternatives for what? One time list or would you want and expect it to be constantly updated? By whom?

This list and many others like it, may be what you're looking for.
