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.

A really straightforward and damned-fast file synchronization tool.

It might have been great, but it was abandoned. Reproducibly nonfunctional.

A video editor, and more; too much more.

A terrible initial impression; it requires some patience, watching a tutorial and following instructions. Don't wander around; don't use strange features, and stay in the "Edit" view!
