What apps would you love to have open-source alternatives for? - Lemmy.World
It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep
getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but
there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source
alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you’d love
alternatives for?
Plain banking apps for smartphones. Having those developed in the open would hopefully make it possible to have forks that work on rooted devices without hiding magisk and whatnot.
That would be awesome. I wish banks would also have standardized (or at least open) APIs so I could use FOSS financial software to pull my live purchase history and then categorize that and etc. I think some banks do this, but not very common in the US from what I can tell.
Yeah, if banks had open and standardised APIs we could all use the same FLOSS banking app — or choose from any of a bazillion FLOSS apps. Instead they’re going the authoritarian route and locking customers in with bloated black box, proprietary apps…
