Lemmy seems like the right place to ask this. Personally I’ve really enjoyed Gurgle, which is a FOSS Wordle clone app.

    PC:

    1. Libreoffice – the best, most customisable and powerful office software available
    2. Onlyoffice – alternative for less-advanced users who are used to the UI of contemporary MSO
    3. Zotero – great bibliography manager useful when writing scientific papers: lets you collect books, journal articles and all other types of sources, automatically finds full text PDFs online, fills in metadata and then inserts dynamic citations in thousands of different, customisable styles. Also generates bibliographies. Works with LO, MSO and GDocs
    4. Caprine – clean Facebook Messenger client (web wrapper based)
    5. TeXStudio – my LATeX editor of choice; integral (ha!) when formatting maths-heavy documents

    Android:

    1. Cloudstream — free streaming app, works with SFlix, Sodastream, PH and other legally dubious streaming providers. Takes some trickery to set up though.
    2. Osmand — OpenStreetMap client with offline (optional online) navigation and plenty of plugins; loads of customisation
    3. Material Files — nicest file manager, especially for rooted devices
    4. Showly — freemium open-source TV and film tracker. Syncs with Trakt.tv
    5. Simple Gallery — out of all Simple Apps by this developer, this is the only one which is in fact superior to its alternatives. Highly customisable, powerful, lightweight gallery app

      Good list I make use of a lot of these too. Keep both LibreOffice and OnlyOffice around depending on how I feel that day but been leaning towards LO quite a bit recently.

      I will say I had Caprine for a while but my god it uses so much memory, it has an absolutely massive footprint on my laptop. I find a nice compromise is using messenger.com as that way I can still send and read messages without delving into the horrors of FB, plus can keep it in a container.
