Balena Etcher, so that you can make a boot able Linux drive 😉 Jokes aside, Windirstat was one of my gems.

Total Commander, great Norton like file manager

Bulk Rename Utility

cheese_greater,

I could never afford it but Rationale is very cool for the inner logician/thinker/schizo in me

Like mentally I literally consider it a cool gem

For the sysadmins under us (and anyone that needs it): TypeClipboard

It essentially is a sort of auto-typer typing what’s in the current clipboard.
Great for remote mangement and typing in the password into a login field because CTRL+V doesnt work.

cheese_greater,

Can’t believe this thread is still going aha

Recently saw an AskLemmy thread with 1k comments.
Was there an exodus somewhere recently?

My favorite hidden gem has to be ear trumpet (eartrumpet.app). It gives you quick access to changing app volume without going through multiple clicks.

Vcio,

f.lux, better than windows built-in function.

xusontha,

the Ditto clipboard manager

It lets me keep track of all my clipboard history without having to use microsoft’s

only thing is I have to remember to go back and delete a password after I copy it, but luckily bitwarden can autofill most of the time

banneryear1868,

Well the one that keeps me needing a Windows machine for on… Ableton Live + VST plug-ins.

Musicbrains Picard is also the best metadata autotag app I’ve used.

“Reclaim Windows” type powershell scripts, feel like group policy and powershell are underutilized by average desktop users. A lot of the things people complain about with windows you can control with it. Primarily a debain user myself but I need Windows to run Ableton on custom hardware so it is what it is.

Dempf,

Recently discovered subs2srs. Super useful if you are learning a language. It can take a video file of a show or movie, extract the subs, and create Anki flash cards for each line of dialogue. It can even add snapshots, audio, and video clips to the flash cards (though video can have lengthy transcodes, so I just stuck with audio/snapshot on my cards).

Lemmy users trying to go 3 minutes without talking about Linux

Lemmy users trying to go 3 minutes without talking about Linux

MartinXYZ,

Why would you want to go three minutes without talking about Linux?

Resistentialism,

Because it makes them look like those Apple types that won’t shut the fuck up about iPhones.

thorbot,

Right because Linux good, Apple bad, got it

Resistentialism,

No, because whilst Linux is a good operating system, and, realistically, apple products are good at what they’re designed to do. Some of the fan base just won’t shut up and just have to insert their views wherever they want.

It’s annoying to see that type of shit. And yes, I’m fully aware hard core windows users will do it too, but here, I haven’t seen one comment where they’ve forced themselves into an unrelated question, unless it was as backstop or something.

thorbot,

My brother in Christ, Is this your first day on Lemmy? Linux is love, Linux is life

ABC123itsEASY,

Pretty sure WinSCP is the best SCP/FTP client on any platform.

Didn’t try it with FTP since I use FileZilla.
Did you compare it and can say why one is superior?
