Shameless bump!

Caesium for saving "good enough" backups of photos to the cloud. INB4 muh freedoms, don't care if the government sees photos of my aunt's birthday.

Off topic, is it safe to post your Github links on /g/?

>>59827223
OP here - Of course it is bud, I've found a few great pieces of software on /g/ over the years; Diskeeper, Honeyview, and one I was keeping to myself because I love it - Sandboxie.

It's an exceptional program. I've used it for years and is one of the new computing software products I've paid for.

With all that said, post Github links if it's a truly great program that not many have heard of bud.

Rainmeter desktop skins add functional customizability

Winrar but it is not free software

It's an image compressor?

I don't use Linux personally but this is still pretty handy nonetheless; thanks for your contribution.

Additionally, sharing more unknown gemstones here if ultimately the goal.

'Xournal is an application for notetaking, sketching, keeping a journal using a stylus [or mouse]. It is free software (GNU GPL) and runs on Linux (recent distributions) and other GTK+/Gnome platforms. [Windows binaries also available] It is similar to Microsoft Windows Journal or to other alternatives such as Jarnal, Gournal, and NoteLab.'

nvALT. Quick and simple note-taking application for Mac. There's also a similar cross-platform application called nvPY, and a Windows-only application called Notation, all of which are based off of Notational Velocity.

Great link, thanks for your contribution!

That would be handy, I'm always copying and pasting things.

I tend to use my Google Keep for everything on my phone for notes as it auto syncs everything but thanks again for your contribution for Linux users.

MAD

Also I thought of another one - Teracopy. Far more information than Windows' build in shit UI.

>>59829049
I haven't even heard of Peazip, but 7zip is my go-to guy.

>>59826881
This look like it has potential.

Anyone tried keepassx? Would recommend.

>>59832499
I keep all my passwords in my head :)

>>59832499
Yep, I use it on Win7, Lin/GNU/x, Android.

Youtube-dl lets you download youtube videos without having to rely on sites and other bloated software. You just type youtube-dl "your link" in terminal. It works with a ton of other sites too.

>Zim Wiki
Zim is a graphical text editor used to maintain a collection of wiki pages. Each page can contain links to other pages, simple formatting and images. Pages are stored in a folder structure, like in an outliner, and can have attachments. Creating a new page is as easy as linking to a nonexistent page. All data is stored in plain text files with wiki formatting. Various plugins provide additional functionality, like a task list manager, an equation editor, a tray icon, and support for version control.

>Faststone Image Viewer
My defacto choice for Windows. Free for home users. Ihave been a user for many years. If you liked ACDsee 3.1, you'll appreciate Faststone. Many, many features. Will mostly work under wine, but, your mileage may vary.

>Plex
Plex is two things: a server that you install on a computer with movies/TV/music, and an app you use to stream that media to your iOS/Android/WP/Xbox/Roku device (among others). There's also a web interface for accessing it through a (desktop/laptop) web browser.

>Streamlink and Streamlink Twitch GUI
Streamlink is a command-line program that allows you to stream many video streaming websites to a video player of your choice (e.g., mpv, VLC, etc.) Streamlink supports many sites like Crunchyroll and Twitch. Streamlink Twitch GUI is a Twitch-specific program that streamlines browsing and launching Twitch streams through Streamlink.

>ShareX
Windows-only image/file uploader. Better than Greenshot, IMO.

>Search Everything
Windows-only search tool that uses built-in NTFS metadata. Much faster than Windows' built-in search function, especially for 7.

>Networx
Bandwidth monitor. Also keeps statistics on bandwidth usage. Windows-only, and as of version 6.0 has been paywalled, but version 5.5.5 is freeware and just as good.

An oldie but goodie, DriveGLEAM is a free software based harddrive activity indicator for windows with some interesting features. Will only work under Windows 32x64 with dlportio.dll, or impout.dll. Really handy for pcs that dont have HDD activity indicators, and LPT port hackers like me.
