From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Not sure how decent yet, but got recommended Beyond Compare at work, which is a trial software and recently discovered it runs on linux.
It's basically a file compare tool, but can also compare images and looks really nice.
It also features, like on Windows, really handy entries for the right click menu of pretty much all popular Linux File managers.
I just bought a standard license for version 5, because it seems awesome and I wanna use it more.
I plan to pay for Immich
Bitwig studio
MakeMKV. It's better than anything else.
L Vue scan pro is a must if you're into analog photography. The software that usually comes with scanners and printers generally doesn't work on Linux and if it does it's terrible.
Lightburn for controlling laser engravers.
It's pretty much the only choice on Linux (though it is cross platform). Free 30 day trial, then ~$80 lifetime licence.
The other choice is LaserGRBL, which is open source, but doesn't seem to have a Linux port for some reason. And it has a lot fewer features, with a more complex workflow.
I'm sure there are some closed softwares left worth paying for but personally I would stop paying for all of it.
The only software left that I pay for is phpstorm and it's buggy as hell and for every bug report I get a "well, nobody really cares". Then what the hell am I paying for?
Well I'm paying for features not found in other systems but seriously, it soeerds my work up by 300% and slows it down by 200% due to the extreme amount of bugs.. it's not acceptable for a paid product but unfortunately there is no good alternative open source product yet.
What is it in PHPStorm that isn't available in any other editors or IDEs?
I don't know other IDE's very well, haven't used others in years.
Amongst things... PHPstorm allows me to rename a method and it will automatically rename that method in any extended class, interface, etc, and any call to they method too. It usually, mostly, does a reasonable job at it, but sometimes it forks up big time.
I guess I am willing to try eclipse again, see how well that goes.
