Jitsi, BigBlueButton, NextCloud Talk, mumble, XMPP + Dino & conversation, Matrix + Element, IRC und XChat, Sylpheed, Friendica und den Rest des Fediverses um mit Menschen zu kommunizieren, manchmal wird es etwas viel, aber lieber etwas zu viel als gar nicht. ASCIIDoctor, LaTeX, pandoc (manche Leute mögen die PDFs nicht die beim ASCIIDoctor raus kommen, sondern wollen lieber docx haben), vim, geany, git, fossil, wkhtmltopdf, pdfgrep, evince ... und noch ganz viele andere für diesen Office Krams, vergessen wir nicht gimp und xsane zum einscannen und bearbeiten einiger Dinge. bash, fish, ssh, mc und all the anderen Tools für den Alltag auf der CLI. nitter, invideous, OpenStreetMap und so für die _alternativen_ Dienste zu den etablierten Platzhirschen. music123, mpv, libreelec, kodi und den youtube-dl um für Unterhaltung drum herum zu sorgen. Und natürlich nicht zu vergessen firefox, lxqt für das grafische Interface zum Desktop und dieser ominösen Wolke namens Internet. Danke! Insbesondere an jene, deren Projekte ich jetzt nicht aufgeführt habe, die aber die Projekte die ich da benutze überhaupt erst möglich machen weil sie Funktionalitäten zur Verfügung stellen die ansonsten einfach fehlen ;-) So und jetzt geh ich erstmal in den Park um ein bisschen frische Luft zu tanken. #ilovefs
