- Commented on Open-Source Slopware
For qBittorent they say and this is in the linked MD file here "This project strongly discourages issue reports and pull requests authored or submitted by AI agents. All issue reports and pull requests should be created and submitted by a human contributor. AI may be used for assistance, but a human must review, take responsibility for, and submit the final changes."
So can you clarify what exactly is AI Slop with qBittorrent? Or is AI assistance in any regards means "AI tainted" or is it...

Reviewed ViPER4Windows★★★★★New version of Viper4Windows is available + other OS platforms thanks to LikeLikesLike: https://github.com/likelikeslike/ViPER4Windows
Tried it on Windows and Android, it works excellently.
Reviewed Egle★★I was very interested in a modern looking tag editor for Windows, unfortunately this one doesn't seem to hit the mark for me. Its no way comparable or as powerful as other audio taggers like tagscanner or mp3tag. Personally I view this more as a music hub think windows media player or Nero MediaHome but for only music. Compared to those however Egle is better, no buts about it. I was just expecting something more geared to tags.
Reviewed TagScanner★★★★★Powerful tagger that outclasses mp3tag easily both in terms of function and intuitiveness. The UI is modern enough and cleaner than mp3tag (on windows). A must have to help organize your offline music collection and set the appropriate tags. The dev is also very responsive when emailed.
Reviewed Surco★★★★★Incredible power, open-source, eliminates and out-competes alternatives like waveform analyzers like Fakin The Funk as well as Audio converters and audio taggers, though I'll keep tagscanner around to for more fine tuning of tags. If you have an offline music collection in files this is a must have. Dev is very responsive
Reviewed Wise Data Recovery★★★Decent for recovering data, however it will not repair corrupted data that has been recovered or it doesn't repair it properly unlike some other alternatives.
Reviewed Kudu Cleaner★★★So far only tried the cleaner and the updater, though the other tools it offers looks very promising. The cleaner itself could be better compared to others that managed to find 60gb of garbage files, in a PC that does not clean automatically, it only found 25gb. The updater pulls from wget, and updates silently but gives no conclusion or summary of the installation.
I will update further when I've tried the other tools it offers
Reviewed WinCleanCat★★Extremely basic cleaning tool, with a mediocre scanning algorithm. I compared it with some other cleaning tools, others found 60-90gb of junk total this one only found 4gb worth of junk. In addition not everything is properly translated into English, the scanning results were all in Chinese despite me selecting the English language.
There are better Open Source alternatives with the bonus of not being from China either.
Reviewed AudiConv★★Does download files from certain sites, however the bitrate of the files may be fake/false.
Reviewed Irbis Zen★★★★★Looks to be a free open-source system-wide ad-blocker similar to Adguard for OS. Would be interesting to compare both of these.
Commented on PearPassStill needs to add support for TOTP and Passkeys, worth keeping an eye on
Edit: It looks like TOTP and Passkeys have been added, will update further. Still no support for key files
Commented on Free Download Manager"It's no longer safe to trust the developer's application."
Kind of a gigantic leap in assumption given that the devs were not the reason for the infected executable, hackers managed to redirect some of the download traffic to an infected executable and when the devs discovered it, they fixed the vulnerability on their site. This would be valid if the devs had a pattern of these kinds of issues, which they do not.
Reviewed Turbo Play★★Needs loooots of work, its pretty unintuitive some, of the transformations for text for example cannot be done on the preview screen rather needs to be done through a menu, preview for 4k video (even with lower preview resolution) doesn't properly play compared to other video editors, tracking seems to crash after the menu doesn't appear and more. There is quite a bit of popup menus even for changing the font size

Reviewed Betterbird★★★★★Its Thunderbird but with further bug fixes, additional UI options and more stable imo. Its totally compatible with Thunderbird, so one can easily switch between the two if needed.
Commented on MailHavenThe checker for if an email address name can be used never gets completed. Support although responsive at first, had no clue.
Very nice list, though I still manage to find some suggestions lol
Id add Handy News Reader, an open source RSS reader with certain features that many RSS readers lack, big one for example is labeled saved articles and can even create pseudo feeds from websites.
If you make a category for social messaging, id add Element (matrix)
Commented on Hancom OfficeAs of June 2024, the version of Hancom Office free edition was last released in 2020, there are better up to date free office suits around. And it has disgustingly long ad in the toolbar.
I would include Magic Earth for Maps
Commented on SnapchatSnapchat is currently part of the same mainstream overhyped, low quality apps that the masses have adopted. Also dark mode is only available on apple devices, not android for whatever reason.
