It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you'd love alternatives for?

Final Cut Pro. I know it’s asking a lot and I know a lot of talented people have tried and are trying to build NLEs and all my gratitude to them. But—no offense intended—none are there yet and actually accomplishing this would be #1 on my magical (no effort provided by me) wishlist.

Blender has spoiled us with unrealistic expectations.

Notion + OneNote/Samsung Notes

There is a myriad of open source notes apps, but none of them really hit the spot for me.

Partiful / evite. There’s not much out there that’s a good simple replacement.

I would love to see an Open Source alt to AlchemyRPG

I love using their scenes when playing DnD online, but their privacy policy leaves a lot to be desired

It's a long shot, but a viable alternative to Google Maps or other proprietary mapping websites (and no, OpenStreetMap is not a viable Google Maps alternative).

EDIT: Not sure why downvotes, OpenStreetMap doesn't even have directions as far as I can tell.
