A classic/vanilla World of Warcraft private server with additional modifications.
While it looks like it has hope, it fails because there are no quest markers on the minimap, so I don’t know where to find quests. I don’t want to re-live that part of things.
2024-11-29 – It was nuked by Blizzard at some point, but came back up again.

A text editor / notes management thing.
While pretty awesome, it’s really really not for me because of some fundamental ways it thinks about data. I’ll continue to use Geany with a bunch of text files.

Seems really interesting, but it’s not my thing.

A really straightforward and damned-fast file synchronization tool.
It might have been great, but it was abandoned. Reproducibly nonfunctional.

Chocolatey: gimp
https://www.gimp.org/
An incredibly capable (and therefore very convoluted) image editor.
I use this:
.svg files to .jpg or .png.png files which have transparency, since mspaint.exe can’t do that.Often called “The Gimp”.

A BitTorrent client.
Meant to be an open-source clone of uTorrent, it does do a very good job of mimicing it.

https://www.valheimgame.com/
An awkward early-access survival game which features wandering around, being killed by boars and trees, and attempting to build structures.
I might have been able to deal with boring and ugly, but the interface is shit; pass. Maybe when this is released I’ll care again.

It does not have a real-time scanner and is used manually.

A video editing program.
While it seems really nice, I couldn’t get through its tutorial. When investigating purchasing it, I learned that it’s a software as a service; no thanks.
