This thread is ONLY to talk about Keyboards, Notes, Maps and Music Players. I add video Music Players because probably some people want to know about good FOSS alternatives.

Why not build a megathread with the best and most reliable FOSS apps too help someone who want to join on the bright side of open source?

We (because this is not from me, this is from us) need to share thoughts, ideas and all things you want to say. Dont be shy. Upvote the comments you like and agree; disagree and tell why you disagree. This is will be different from others threads because this need a proper user opinion, and your opinions will be VERY important to build this. In short, your opinions and thoughts will be the fundamental source to build this.

I will read ALL comments to build this. Even if this has a million comments, I’m going to waste time reading it. Whatever it takes.

Your opinions about it are CRUCIAL and FUNDAMENTAL, because your opinions is the main-base to build the megathread.

Please, consider share your ideas and thoughts about apps on previous threads. Your opinions are really important to build final megathread. You can upvote or downvote posts so that comments gain strength and agreement between the community.

Music player: "dialog music player" for filemanagers, Vanilla music if you want auto-play, anrimians player is nice too (github)
maps: nothing beats OSMAnd
Notes: personally markor, but if you want cross platform sync Standard Notes may be nice
Keyboard: Florisboard forever, so stable and customizable. I cant like without the internal clipboard and quick deletion, and the editing buttons

Joplin

I sync it with onedrive basically for free between my phone, laptop and computer. It's wysiwyg editor means it was basically a drop in replacement for EverNote for me, but open source and without the costs.

For music, I use FinAmp. Basically have self-host JellyFin and can stream the music over LAN w/o using storage, or download it to my phone for offline listening

I've been using Minuum for years despite it being long abandoned by its closed source devs. Fans of this very unique keyboard would love to have an OSS alternative!

Hacker's Keyboard is the only keyboard app I'll accept on Android.
