A simple image viewer, but it doesn’t have the basic functionality I want. GPicView blows it away.

My policy in general is to have as few moving parts as possible. The few inter-dependant projects, the simpler the software, the more straightforward the setup is the easier everything becomes.
PulseAudio is a steaming pile of shit which I’ve never had working correctly. Even finding basic documentation on how to use it isn’t out there.
Brought to you by the author of systemd, so you know it’s Evil.

Meant to be an improvement over the default GNOME run dialog, this still had glaring omissions when I tried it.

A small and very fast Media Player, it suports the widespread media files that Gstreamer do support. Christine allows you to search trough your media files and play them quickly. You can create playlists to keep your files organized, use a queue and organize radio stations.
Complete garbage when I tried it

This distro is dormant. As of 2015-05-15 its earlier version did not have systemd, but I’m sure that if it woke back up it would.

This page is about ZFS-fuse, the ZFS attempt for Linux

ZFS is a filesystem.
I have abandoned this filesystem because it is about as closed as it can get without being officially closed. It’s hampered by awkward licensing and patents making it intentionally incompatible with the GPL.
Even if it was made to work perfectly, running under FUSE is sub-optimal.
It also seems horrifyingly complex to use. Seriously.
Its checksumming is important for The Chain of Trust.
