Not entirely software, but the MiSTer FPGA project. Having accurate zero-lag hardware accurate versions of almost every console, many arcade games, PCs (Amiga, Commodore etc), and handheld up to and including the PlayStation in a box the size of a game boy is unreal.

Majority of the project is open source, and has been used for ports to the analogue pocket handheld, which I also have and use often

I'unno. Don't really think about it that hard.

I guess firefox, since it gives me ~~porn~~ access to websites.

Subsurface

Its dive planning and dive logging software. It's also the only software I'm aware of that can actually pull the data from my dive computer, which uses some crappy proprietary cable and software. The fact that subsurface exists and is automatically in Linux repositories is what finally allowed me wipe out my aging and barely functioning computer, and revive it with Linux.

Freecad. It's a little rough to use compared to professional cad products I've used but it can really do a lot. In a lot of ways it feels less constrained than some of the stuff I've used too

Pihole, Kubernetes, ffmpeg, VLC, pretty much we are so technologically advanced because there is so much free and open source software. If it wasn't for it we would be ages behind technologically.

OBS is my one of my favorite softwares in general, let alone open source

The Linux Kernel and operating system in general. It is simultaneously my favorite and I hate that it killed my prior favorite, the SGI Irix operating system. I was there at the beginning, from kernel 1.1 through today. I remember telling regional directors at silicon graphics that Linux was the future and them disparaging that opinion.

Gotta go with python here, though vim would be a close second.

Wine, despite the headache that is fiddling with its configurations for specific older games to work.

Dolphin Emulator always amazes me in how perfect of an emulator it is.

I think alot of Indie and open source games owe their existence to SDL.

I also have a love-hate relationship with meson...

Ncdu is awesome. I even used it last night when I accidentally filled up my ssd causing my os to crash. Finding the offending folder took like 10 seconds. Much better than writing a whole script.
