Libre office, a great office option. I've been using it for 15 years. Foreshadowing
VLC, Plays media. It's a tank. Also Highways use VLC to mark many winter potholes.
Linux, It's not that hard to use anymore.( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
WINE, not just for one night stands! it's great for running Windows Stuff on Linux.
Also, and my personal favorite, your mom is free and open source. Mic Drop going to bed. With your mom. Wasn't expecting that twice were you? Well, neither was your mom. Got 'em.
mpv has superior playback quality to VLC in my opinion.
I use celluloid, because I absolutely hate the mpv interface. Seriously, how unexplorable and unintuitive can you make it?
I used to feel the same way, but the interface is actually super customizable if you are ok with editing config files!
Here is the manual.
There is also a huge variety of third party scripts, like this one shows thumbnail previews when hovering over the seek bar.
