And for software like Microsoft and Adobe:
-
Word alternative: I started trying out OnlyOffice, based in Latvia. So far it seems decent. Definitely doesn't look as dated as Open- and LibreOffice.
Logic, FL Studio alternative: Audacity is in my opinion not a serious alternative. If you want simple voice overs, sure, but otherwise no. I'd recommend Reaper instead. Not open source, but there aren't many DAWs that are (maybe Ardour, but I don't have experience with it ). Reaper is really open as far as proprietary DAWs go.
-
Look, I love Audacity which is an awesome audio editor but it is absolutely not an alternative to Logic or Fl, which are DAWs.
-
Some more recommendations

I don't know Ardour but these are actually solid!

FreeCAD is a start, but nowhere as good as AutoCAD, unfortunately. I haven't tried GIMP's v3.0 version yet, but 2.x is terrible to use. Depending on what you need to do, Krita would be a better alternative.

Lol who's using winamp and real player in 2025?
-
I still use Winamp 5.666 but with the Big Bento theme. I still can't find a replacement that would be just as good or better.
-
Me :)
With the old UI too (Winamp)
Lots of things in life may change, but my mp3 player must always stay the same.
-
Winamp was good but real player has always been trash
-
Yeah, I've pretty much just continued to use the media software my dad used in the 2000's, which was Winamp for mp3s and VLC for video.

Who's using VLC in 2025? It renders colours in mkvs so badly sometimes! mpv (with SMPlayer as front end) is where it's at!
-
MPV > all

Audacity isn't a good replacement at all for those. It has a different purpose. There should be LMMS and Ardour instead
-
The best alternative to commercial CAD systems is commercial CAD systems if you know what I mean. That said, FreeCAD is the only option if you want to run on Linux. Inventor, Solidworks, AutoCAD, etc, are all borked even in wine.
-
I've never really tried it, but onshape is browser based.
-
I never really cared for onshape/simscale or fusion. Maybe I am just oldschool but the whole browser based thing didn't sit right with me for CAD stuff.
