For me it is the note taking/PKMS tool SilverBullet.

Together with the ShareX extension (FF and Chromium), using with FileCoffee (setup script), a killer app

(FileCoffee isn't OpenSource, but i recommend it as one of the most private host and sharer (images, multimedia, video, documents, presentations, text.....), 100% free (account (free) optional), made in the EU (Netherland), best replacement of Imgur, which is a little less than spyware.)

I use also

And to turn off the bad habits and sniffings of Windows

Cheers for recommendations.

I use:

  • proton VPN
  • Portmaster
  • Wintoys = Windows debloater (I also have another tool that has almost all debloaters for Windows)
  • Xnviewer = image viewer (will be checking out the one you’ve suggested)
  • CopyQ (Clipboard manager)
  • Start11 (Not open source but a good tool for taskbar customisation)
  • QuickLook (selecting a file or folder then pressing the space bar, you can view a document, video, folder, or song without having to open it)
  • HotKeyP - App launcher (I turn off all start-up apps and use this tool to launch all the desired apps with a single hotkey)
  • Flow Launcher - I can’t use Windows without Flow Launcher; it’s my universal search engine for everything.

Instead of Start11, use Rainmeter (FOSS), to customize not only the taskbar, but almost the whole UI + all kind of widgets. You can create your own skin (scripts), or use one of the hundreds made by the community in Deviantart and other sites (links in the homepage). Complete Wiki and tutorils. Before i forgot that i use also FreeTube and SMplayer as externplayer, if FreeTube fails, Gimp and Krita, but i think that these are already well known apps.

Never heard of wintoys. How does it compare to win-debloat-tools?

[–] land@lemmy.ml 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

It’s not that powerful but does the job, but if you want more advanced ones. This tool has almost every single one of them. With one click, you can download any debloater.

Edit: it also has windows optimiser tools.

~~Wow, it's not even in nixpkgs. Not very known at all.~~

Oh, it's a windows app. nvm
