For me, it’s hands down Flameshot. The best screenshot tool in the world - I’ve got it hooked up to my PrtScrn key for super easy screenshots.
I also love Kwrite as a Notepad++ alternative, and KolourPaint as a MSPaint alternative

Wine/Proton. It’s a one-stop solution for gaming on Linux (for current games). Lutris is also worth mentioning as a frontend/launcher.
Also worth mentioning Heroic Launcher. Works beautifully with the Epic store.
Check out Bottles for running Wine and derivatives from a GUI :)!
Although, I find it a sad commentary that the most upvoted (even by me) in this thread is something to made to run non-linux software. :(
that’s one way to look at it, but if not for WINE and proton we’d not have had the renaissance of desktop Linux that’s well under way :)
And I totally agree with you. I just lament that games and other made for Windows software is what’s enabling that. People should just want a free and opensource operating system as a matter of self interest… but no. It’s games and Windows apps. Yet another sign that our species is just sick in the head. :)
I’m with you that we need some deprogramming when it comes to how we’re far too complacent with the privacy-ignoring and humanity-disrespecting behaviour of Microsoft. But at least personally I was always someone who accepted it with gritted teeth because the alternatives sounded like a downgrade in other ways.
Now that Linux is faster, smoother, more user friendly and compatible than ever, it made the decision to delete my Windows partition much less daunting.
And now if Linux does give me headaches (it’s not a perfect experience!) I’m much less likely to immediately give in and reinstall Windows because I’m now accustomed to the aspects that I didn’t realise were so important to me before.
I clink my beverage with yours, dear person!

Oh we need it, it’s just how to make linux survive in a capitalist world where things are only made for platforms that can make them money.

Did I object to making money? No. I object to allowing the making of money to be the guiding principle of software development. Make something great? Want to sell it? Fine. But only write it for Windows because it will sell better? Burn in heck.
Not sure why you’re being hostile to me but I’m not interested in an argument.
Did you think the burn in heck was for you? It wasn’t. It’s for people who only write software for Windows because it makes them more money. No one was being hostile to you. Seriously, what the heck?
