Mhady has already done a great job explaining what is wrong with the site, it is ran by a bunch of wannabe-corporate data harvesting larpers with no regard for quality nor standards whatsoever.
As mentioned, they also regularly take down mods for arbitrary reasons, proving that they're not a safe host.
This has been proven (discord, twitter, youtube (google) time and time again, do not trust corporate authority with anything.
I hope one day we will get to...
PaintFE
★★★★
Fast and light alternative to Paint.net and Open Source ftw
It can view, edit the gene map and it can do sequence alignment, which is the most important function! BTW, the UI is beautiful, and the tutorial is good for beginners. The NGS fastq file reader is also a powerful tool for me!
I like
kovid shoving slop into all his software means i now have to wait for arcalibre releases or figure out compiling it for myself, and also find a replacement for kitty. i refuse to use this bullshit. i cannot trust it.
Mailo
★★★
Not bad at a first glance. No tracking and other abusive practices. Offers free accounts that should be quite usable. Mail clients are allowed.
However, free accounts cannot use POP3, only IMAP (much less convenient and reliable). They will also be deleted after 1 year of inactivity. And the service also annoyingly blocks many IPs from registration outright. Wish I could give it a higher rating as it seems to be much better than many other more 'fancy' commercial providers out there.
EpicPencil
★★★★★
Works nicely. Can save via Screenshot, but doesn't save Sessions.
Cordial
★★★★★
its literally a FOSS version of sober,so dump sober and improve cordial instead. cordial is still expirimental,so its buggy,so please,test it more and report any bug that you expirience in its github issues. anyways,alternativeto janjans,why its not on the first place of the sober alternatives list?
