Insomnia suddenly turned into a ransomware. Pay up or have all you dara lost!
A few days later Insomnium popped up supporting the old file format.
Too bad Insomnium quickly became a dead project. Luckily, Bruno and its file-based projects are perfect.
Oh thanks! I switched to Bruno but much of our company still uses Insomnia and I've been pushing to get it blacklisted, because of the dark pattern, and the likelihood of tricking staff to upload credentials.
OpenOffice was a really solid Microsoft Office rival, and FOSS to boot. Made by Sun Microsystems, of course, and then ruined by Oracle (of course).
Thankfully LibreOffice was forked from it and is still going strong as a very capable suite of document tools. And OpenOffice is basically dead, womp womp.
Recently tried MS Office apps for the first time in 8 or so years. Somehow they made them less intuitive than even ribbon days. They use a dark pattern save dialog that makes it easy to accidentally save to OneDrive, and if you have OneDrive disabled or uninstalled, there's an always present icon in the title bar of the main edit window that says "autosave off" even though autosave is on.
Went right back to LibreOffice after one document and one spreadsheet.
And before OpenOffice there was Star Office.
Now I feel old.
Especially as I also remember when I used to write with Lotus Word Pro.
There are many examples of this, but one that comes immediately to mind is the evolution of my favourite LDAP-enabled music player, airsonic-advanced
Subsonic begat libresonic
Libresonic begat airsonic as well as a whole bunch of other projects.
Airsonic begat airsonic-advanced
Airsonic-advanced begat kagemomiji/airsonic-advanced, however the maintainer of the parent codebase, randomnicode, wants to do the right thing and get their code up to snuff with the opensubsonic API (not sure where that fits in to thr history) so kagemomji can take over.
You have a preferred mobile app to access the service you'd recommend?
They all have their quirks, but until airsonic-advanced catches up with the latest opensubsonic API, I've been trying out Audinaut, DSub, and Ultrasonic. I had to reorganize my whole library, though.
I'm not a fan of these album-based apps. most of my music falls under "Various Artists". As such, I've been playing around with Musicbrainz Picard to try different tagging in an attempt to try to find something that works across both at the server and client end.
Subsonic doesn't work for me, I'm guessing because it refuses to fall back to earlier versions of their API. I could be wrong.
