Made a new thing. Driftwood - an AppImage manager for Linux. Browse 2,000+ apps, one-click install, updates, vulnerability scanning, and desktop menu integration. No root, no accounts, no telemetry.
Built with Rust and GTK 4, runs in userspace, ships as an AppImage itself. Free, CC0 public domain, WCAG 2.2 AAA accessible.
If you use AppImages and want something nicer than the terminal for managing them, give it a look.
New app. Outlay - a personal finance app for Linux. Track what you spend, set budgets, manage subscriptions, and see where your money goes. Everything lives in one file on your machine. No accounts, no cloud, no telemetry.
It's a native GTK 4 app so it fits right in on a GNOME desktop. I put a lot of work into making it look and feel nice.
Free, CC0 public domain. No subscription to track your subscriptions.
New app. PixStrip - batch image processor for Linux. Resize, convert, compress, strip metadata, watermark, and rename. A step-by-step wizard walks you through everything so you don't need to know what you're doing to get good results.
Full CLI for scripting. Fediverse resize presets for Mastodon, Pixelfed, and Lemmy built in.
Rust + GTK 4, native on GNOME. WCAG 2.2 AAA accessible. Free, CC0 public domain. Runs locally.
