I want to highlight a practical usecase for password management with open source tools. Keepass (gnome secrets on computers, and keepassdx on mobile) with syncthing syncing encrypted password files between the devices. Very effective so far. Passwords are synced seamlessly.
Jellyfin and findroid. Mainly findroid.
Also PipePipe (piped app for youtube) and libretube
I also play an open source version of solitaire and a game called box stacker, both are from the f droid store
And ofc, infinity for lemmy
KDE Plasma
OpenRadio is a good one if you like radio and music in general. It has radio stations from everywhere and from almost every music style.
Syncthing (for obsidian notes, mostly. I know there are FOSS apps that do what obsidian does, but they just don't feel as good for my purposes).
