This is one of the best video on linux
Thank you for the comment Dhananjay. I'm glad you liked the video 😊
@@bendover4728 yeah only cavemen talk about caves .....
@@bendover4728 if you are so positive on the negative why don't you try make a video on Linux stuff
mee too. I like video
I also think this is an excellent video. I have been looking for something like Simple note.
Love how he installs chromium to avoid spyware then immediately shows himself installing the grammerly plugin which is basically a keylogger
Life is not so easy when your native language is not English.
@@Adyel-YT English is my fourth language. I don't really need a grammar checking extension. My school had great teachers and I paid attention in my English classes.
@@nuclearnyanboi Well, good for you innit? I know 4 language. Good enough to hold conversation. Also, I understand a little bit of Japanese. Just because you had great teacher that does not mean it's accessible to all people. This is why people need software like grammarly. No need to judge. That's what I'm saying.
@@Adyel-YT The commenter was referring to the privacy issues the addon has.
lol. Brave and waterfox for me please

I won't use all these but it's nice to know what's available and make recommendations. Thanks to Linux Tex and your ⏱️.
Thanks.
@Jean-Paul Teitu II I suppose it's because Chromium is open-sourced.
@@SaifUlIslam-db1nuIslam also, chrome has a tendency to collect data but chromium collects less data from you.
@@ChillPard any sources to confirm this? I have never heard this from anywhere else before.
Thank you for curating this list. I've been using Linux for years, and I still didn't know about some of these apps!
Do more content like this or beginners linux guide something like that, other than comparing one distro with another distro.
Love your linux content :)
Definitely . Thank you for the suggestion :)
@@LinuxTex yes thnxx a lot + plz also include a few programs like ranger, nnn or lightweight ones for the users like me :D
At first I was like "oh hear we go again. Another list of must have", but I'm taken back. You're choices are pretty decent. Great Job! You just earned a subscribe in my book. Keep up the good work! :-)
Taking Rambox, Timeshift and Nitroshare =) Thank you, very useful programs.
The first time I watched this video was when I was entering the Linux world, it was about a year ago. It is awesome to see how good this tips can help to improve the daily workflow. Thanks a lot for this! It is one of the best videos I ever watched, recommended it for a thousand people already. Cheers from Brazil!
Great video and informative as heck for someone like myself getting ready to "dump" windows 10! Keep up the good work!
Great video, it's hard to believe you're talking about Linux but at the same time is refreshing to found how easy to use is this great OS these days. Thanks a lot for your work.
To me, these tools are really helpful, thanks for sharing the video!
I really like your quick to the point information---- great job
Great list of apps! Thanks for the video. 😊👍🏼
Thank you, these all seem like gems and I look forward to trying them.
As for the fear of testing apps and the possibility of wanting to roll back, I’ve been using a Ununtu VM running on VirtualBox on a Ubuntu host. Super easy to take snapshots and revert :-)
Thanks!
It is taking me forever to get through this video since I keep stopping to add apps to my system. Thanks for the upload. This is an excellent video.
hehe, that's exactly what I did too!
You are making amazing videos, I love to hear your voice as well!
Keep doing well!
Great video. Clear, concise and well presented. Subscribed

Some awesome apps, thanks for sharing! I've been using Linux since around 1995 and it's great to see the adoption take-up.
This is an excellent review for linux. To remind you mega 50gb space is available for the first three months ONLY!!.
Nicely done and good reviews. I have finished building a new computer and have decided to install Linux Mint 19. After being a strong Windows user, version 10 has just sent me over the edge. I used Ubuntu and Mint about 7 or so years ago. Just wasn't there yet. After looking to change the OS, I was very impressed by the current development. I will have this puppy up and running over this weekend with no looking back. Kudos Linux.
Two great videos in a row. Liked both, now I'm subscribing and on notifs. Looking forward to more content from you
I'd add Inkscape to the list (vector graphics, Linux answer to Adobe Illustrator)
I would like to say Thank you I have subscribed as I am a new adopter to Linux and Foss this video has a wealth of knowledge and useful apps AWESOME minus the Chromium demon Thanks Again from me in Canada!
Thank you for the comment. I'm glad you liked the video. Welcome to my channel. See you around 😊
Great recomendation, thanks for the sharing, many software i didnt know and now i'm used it :)
That is a nice long collection of apps for Linux users and I have to try to remember some of them that I can use on my Linux laptop. Thanks for sharing this information with us all and I hope you are having a nice week.
This IS a very usefull and precious video for smart computer users !
Love that you mentioned caliber, it's such a must have and powerful piece of software. One of my first installs whenever setting up a machine.
I'm a new linux user and some of these apps (Synaptic for one) are so useful, you've made my migration week a lot easier, thank you for an excellent video =)
Good recommendations, thank you! I'll have to check a couple of those out, especially Mega.
Great list. Thanks for sharing it with such informative explanations.
Glad you liked the vid buddy. Thanks for the comment. See you around 😊
Timeshift is a great recommendation. As new to Linux, is has been a lifesaver.
Thank you for your list of recommended software!
Excellent video! Thank you for producing it!
Rambox is exactly what I need
you put simple note near the end of the video.. Now I have to watch it again to note down the apps XD..
Very simple, yet detailed & informative video.
Thank you, I found some of your recommendations highly usable.
Amazing job, must have taken a lot of time and effort to gather the information and skill and then present it.
Appreciate what you are doing for Linux community.
Keep it up.
Thanks
Thank you so much Wadud. I'm really glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks the comment brother.
Bro please make Linux Administration videos from basic to Advance. I just love the way you explain. U r not less than a good teacher
I'm glad you like my videos. I'll definitely do a Linux course.
@@LinuxTex Thanks. I will be waiting.
I found this video informative. I have been using Linux for my servers since the 1990s but only in the last year have I been using it as a desktop. While I only have interest in about 5 of these applications, I needed someone to filter down my choices on those. I like wires, they are secure and don't go down.
Good video.
Many of the shown apps look very promising and most likekly will be included in my Linux distro when I make the move from Windows to Linux in the near future.
Great video, but you did forget to mention Lutris 😉
I will do a gaming related video. I'll definitely include Lutris in that one. Thank You for the suggestion Nicolas :)
Never heard of it before... Thanks
And to add to that, you MUST install gamemode and run it through Lutris. I couldn't believe the difference it made.
Agreed. I can’t say I know of anyone that actively uses Linux as a DE without doing some gaming.
@@VapidSlug gamemode huh? Thanks for the tips.
My favorite is RUclips-dl add it in the next!
Absolute gold mine of a video. Thanks buddy!
That "Bookworm" word got me subscribed ☺️
Thanks!
"Gnome can be highly customized"
I think you never used KDE
Well, compared to Windows or macOS, Gnome IS highly customisable.
But yeah, we all know KDE is #1 for customisability (that's why I'm using it right now!)
@@saeedbaig4249 I also use KDE but it is because of some bugs in Gnome and XFCE with some games and fullscreen
Also I found it to be the highest performing
Deep down we all know Gnome is best.

After huawei ban on technology war, now it is the best time to develop powerful Linux for smart phones.
Isn't Open Source Android (not Google's or Samsung's proprietary versions) just that, built on Linux ?
@@maaifoediedelarey4335 apple ios ,android is bulit on linux but we need deferent flavour. Pure open one .
@@ra8620 I'm all for that.
@@ra8620 How can it be pure open some major company has to support right, that what open android is?
Very well done sir, I use most of these myself, being on Manjaro, however, I prefer a few alternatives, but it really is all in what each user is comfortable with. Great list all around! You cannot beat the choices these days with Linux distro's. If one doesn't fit you, you still have other great applications to choose from. Subbed. :)
You rock...
it's so informative.
Thanks, bro, I loved your video :)
thaks for this collection of the best gnu/linux software but you can change mega with nextcloud because it offers more freedom and security.
Thank you sooooo much for your great post!!!!!
🙌🙌🙌💯💯💯
Brilliant video thank you for making and uploading
I would only add Blender to this list. Great collection.
Blender is only really necessary if you do any 3D modeling/animation though, it's definitely a must have in that specific case but not for everyone.
Do a linux/ubuntu initial setup guide with all themes extensions and everything
Definitely will do.
How do you add chromium?
@@tiffanywhitsett3389 Go to Ubuntu Software Center and search it up.
never heard of simplenote, but definitely gonna consider using it. Much appreciate the video, I do use a lot of these programs, though which is good to know I kind of been using Linux better than before. I used to get sooo lost in the different names of the softwares that were like the same, just a different name with a few different features or different look. I have been using linux for about 3 years now daily and still continue to learn more and more stuff I had not known. As I have been using windows a bit more lately for work, I have been trying my darndest to give it a linux feel to it over the MIcroCrap they put on there.
Great list, thank you.
I'll argue that smplayer (mpv) is better than vlc. According to my own experience SMPlayer has all the same feature mentioned and can play videos smoother than VLC.
i agree, i use smplayer and can't stand the vlc interface, but, isnt smplayer just a "skin" running on-top of vlc?
i use linux mint and i can't find mplayer installed but i can find vlc
I use smplayer on windows and it's the best.... The default controls are exactly what I need , no need to tinker with the settings.
@za guite wait what? smplayer for windows? WOW, will check it out, i used the media player classic inspired by the old windows 2000 media player, Media Player Classic - BE (MPC-BE)
@Modest Zlatolobov its as stable as VLC , it can occasionally crash if the video file is corrupt . But not like the way it used to when its looking for some fonts and stuff before playing a video.
Give it a try , even the portable version works well.
Well VLC is good but mpv is more superior to it. In VLC sometimes flicker/gray screen occur when playing videos but never experinced such a thing in mpv. But since mpv isn't really for everyone since you need to customize it using config file, SMPlayer could be a great alternative. Been trying VLC for like forever but dunno why i can never like it, even on Windows I prefer MPC or PotPlayer, VLC is just not that great.
Vlc defaults to an OpenGL renderer which seems to be rather flickery on some distributions. You can change the video output method under VLCs Preferences. It'll depend on your setup, but on popular distros changing the output from Automatic to "X11 video output (XCB)" should fix any flickering issue.
Great list!
Great video and recommendations thank you very much!
i would use davinci resolve over kdenlive, it's more powerful and just as easy to use
Some are not really a "must have" if I don't edit videos or images.
Good video pal. Keep up the good work!
These are really good Linux apps you list in your video, thank you. I use Kubuntu on one of my PC's and will check out the listed Linux apps on my PC
That pronounciation of GIMP was on purpose... as you did say that software's name more than others... and...
I'm sold on that pronounciation... it will be a great way to cause intense levels of pain in geeks.
Don't want to anger the RUclips algorithms with proper pronunciation.
Sorry? Chromium? For privacy? Firefox is waaaay better!
Blockbreakermx yeah was thinking the same thing. Chromium is just a stripped down chrome.
Unless you don't care about hardware video acceleration in Linux :)
Chromium-VAAPI with h264fy extension allows me to watch FullHD videos from RUclips using only 7% of the CPU on my 12 years old laptop because of hardware acceleration when Firefox uses 90-100% on the same videos with frame drops.
@Itz Blacky It wasn't there 3 months ago when my comment was written :D
Or waterfox
@Pulsar Zihad Firefox supports HW video acceleration since version 80 (end of August 2020) on both X11 and Wayland.
Excellent video with excellent explanations. Thanks for the upload.
I am a Japanese Debian Gnome Desktop user. Watching this video, I came across a lot of great software. Thank you very mach.
It's pronunced gimp with hard G sound not jimp with a soft G sound.
well, he also says turd ("third") and g.b instead of gigabyte, like you'd say kilo not k.g.
Gaming related topics pls
Will do Rahul. Thanks for the comment :)
@@LinuxTex keep up the good work 🙂🙃
brilliant video, thanks for the info.
So happy you chose KdenLive for Video editing
"Gimp" as in "girl," not "gimp" as in "gym."
Gimp as in gigantic
gimp as in gif
@@bartoszburgiel4559 hah good one !
@@morgulbrut, you won the intarwebz. Perfect answer. LMAO!!
Gimp as anglophones aren’t multi lingual and when butcher our languages don’t even say sorry or speak english even if they are in countries like Germany, France or Spain.
I was with you until you referred to GIMP as JIMP.
rofl ... he is esl i think he did pretty well.....
This was word for word the comment I was gonna write :)
i blame gif (jif) for confusion
jimp..., you know, like jorilla...
Nidiot.
Thank you. Very useful.
Bro u need more than a million sub..one day u will. One more thing.. the information u share is just amazing and those who are still not searching..they miss a lot
It's not "jimp", it's "gimp" (hard g). And it's the GNU Image Manipulation Program.
I bet they call a gif jif too.
viri yiff
@@rrrocky969 that's for something much better than a multi decade old file format
"jimp" LOL
jimpanzee
Makes you wonder about other content.
Great description well done
This video is very helpful for me. Thanks
"Jimp".
Lord Marcus lol was thinking the same
I mean...it like be of fits with the GNU naming scheme....maybe....
@@dstinnettmusic Assuming I understand you correctly, "GNU" is "guh-new" (a hard "G"), not "juh-new" (soft "G"). Therefore, "GIMP" also has a hard G.

@@naiyoseam5654 ruclips.net/video/bmqy-Sp0txY/видео.html
11:17..It's " gimp"..not pronounced" jimp".
Thank you for some useful programs that I hadn't heard about before.
These videos are money! Have you considered doing a yearly updated list? Love the content
"JIMP"
I'm afraid I must disagree with your pronunciation on this one
i guess that's a fork that can work only with .jif's
i bet this guy has been a Linux professional for at least 2 Weeks, lol
Yah think?
nice work and good explanations..
Thank you...
Thank you brother..
Very useful video.
Why almost every Linux-related video on RUclips has distinct Indian accent?
it pissing me off too )))
But he has African accent - not Indian :-)
Good video tho.
Why would it piss you off? American accents piss me off. India has the largest adoption rate of Linux in the world. Something like 10% of computers in India run Linux. Go India
@アム刀りムPΛПDΛ fuck u on about? they guy who started Linux is from Finland....
This is not windows. Bleech it or Stacer is useless, also gnome and many other DEs come with a way to clean temporary data that is rendered useless... Also saying that Chromium is better than Chrome, it ain't. It's the open source project in which Chrome is based, but still connects to google servers and send them your data. Only proper choice is Firefox.
Great video.. YOU saved my life ..!
Thank You... :)
Really like your videos you make Linux Look and sound easy make me want to learn an use it
Thx for the heads up on some cool apps. For my own list, I would include Tilda (drop down terminal) and Synapse (fast launcher).
Hey LinuxTex...great video. And some really cool choices you've made IMO. For example I've been a use of Mega for quite some time...the native Linux app and huge free storage is great. Liked and subscribed!
Really well put together video.
wow.. great reviews.. thank for all the tips..!
I've been using simple note for quite a while now but didn't know linux have it..!
tqsm.. you've earned my subscription..
