@richardorilla I recommend Warzone 2100. It was released under the GPL v2 license. You can download Windows, macOS, and Linux versions freely. For Linux distributions, most mainstream ones include it in their default repositories, and there’s also a Flatpak version available.

OBS Studio 32 introduces plugin manager, new formats, and major fixes:

Element Web and Desktop add redesigned room list with new filters & clearer notifications:
https://alternativeto.net/news/2025/9/element-web-and-desktop-add-redesigned-room-list-with-new-filters-and-clearer-notifications/
(I mean, I kinda like the new design, but why did they remove grouping by default, e.g. DMs, system alerts and low priority rooms listed separately from other rooms? It doesn't make much sense to me.)

Zen Browser 1.16b brings enhanced URL bar, command bar actions & updated Firefox 143 base:

Odysee removed LBC bid option from the text/file upload pages (when editing an existing post, the option is still there)
(No article about it)
(So they finally started their migration away from LBRY, and embrace the Arweave ecosystem, with the new crypto service which requires a separate account, doesn't seem that trustworthy... I mean, it's ok for me, as long as they allow to upload content without it, I'll just ignore it. Not sure how content promotion will work though, e.g. will my content still appear on the top of the Tech category, but if not, I'll rather take the loss of views, than registering a crypto service which I can't find the source code of, can't really trust (in case you're a new viewer, the Fossery Tech project stands for FOSS, only uses FOSS for everything, except for a few OS drivers and news sites). If they decide to restrict uploads, I'll probably make a separate LBRY channel.)
