What are some FOSS programs that you think are a far better user experience than their counterparts?
(sh.itjust.works)
I used Plex for my home media for almost a year, then it stopped playing nice for reasons I gave up on diagnosing. While looking at alternatives, I found Jellyfin which is much more responsive, IMO, and the UI is much nicer as well.
It gets relegated to playing Fraggle Rock and Bluey on repeat for my kiddo these days, but I am absolutely in love with the software.
What are some other FOSS gems that are a better experience UX/UI-wise than their proprietary counterparts?
EDIT: Autocorrect turned something into "smaller" instead of what I meant it to be when I wrote this post, and I can't remember what I meant for it to say so it got axed instead.
And if you REALLY need the Photoshop workflow... there is always gimpshop.
While i'm browsing i mostly use MiniPaint on the fly in the browser itself (Html5). Despite of its name it has nothing of "Mini", its a very complete editor with all needed features, filters, tools and effects, super fast and FOSS (MIT license). Works also great as PWA.
