I like VerifiedReply as an alternative to Trustpilot because my customers only have to hit reply, and the review ends up on my own product page instead of someone else's site.
Afina Browser
★★★★★
Afina has been a nice addition to my e-commerce toolkit. I like how flexible the profile settings are, and workspace organization makes handling different stores much easier. Teams and UDP support are also useful extras. Does the job without unnecessary fuss!
USBImager
★★★★★
Very good and simple GUI alternative to cli tools like dd to create bootable USB drives.
Best features of USBImager: it's not bloated and has no telemetry (not like Etcher!)
Streak
★★★★★
Streak is a beautiful and free app with impressive graphics and great progress visualization. I like the extensive UI customization and the built-in task list. The best part is the gamification—the virtual island is a fantastic motivator that keeps you coming back every day. A great way to build better habits!
Simplenote
★★★★★
Simplenote is a great app for when you just need to write something down - a short note, some words, or a link - and transfer it to another device via synchronization to the same account. Simple, fast, and still works!
Excellent tool !
Refract
★★★★★
I think Refract is the best tracking app out there. It has developers that are actually active and release updates as much as they can. They are active on Discord and Reddit so if you have a suggestion they actually take it into consideration. I would strongly consider getting this app if you want to track your TV shows, movies, and anime.

Popular App Lists
AI Slopfree Software Catalog
A more optimistic homage to the slopware catalog https://alternativeto.net/lists/44427/slopware/, this list is designed to showcase projects, both FOSS and proprietary, which reject contributions from Generative AI LLM slop machines. The most pessimistic thing about this list is how short it is and how so many commonly used software solutions and websites are not included.
I have to give it up to the following sites for providing references:
https://codeberg.org/brib/slopfree-software-index
https://github.com/melissawm/open-source-ai-contribution-policies
There are a lot more projects on this list which I didn't include because they aren't on AlternativeTo (yet). I'll be adding more entries to this site (and removing those who fold to the AI overlords) on a regular basis. I'm including references, which are all first-hand declarations from the development teams for each entry to ensure items aren't included based on hearsay or conjecture.

Apps I Use on GrapheneOS
If you are using GrapheneOS on your main phone, then you have made the first and most important step towards privacy in your daily life (in my opinion of course). Most people use their phones more than any other device, and have their phones on them almost all the time, so ensuring that your phone is as private as you can reasonably and comfortably make it is a great move. Switching the operating system is only the first step however. If you move from an iPhone full of big tech apps to GrapheneOS and then install all those apps again, what is the point? Sure, you will have a more private and secure system, but you would subject yourself to being tracked every time you open an app. So, we need to find alternatives to these apps, that are open source, don't track us, keep everything possible local, and don't have an ulterior agenda beyond being the tool you are looking for.
