MX Player for Android (Older version preferably, before sellout, if you can find). So much better than VLC.

Japanese visual novels, because there are more of them.
Adobe lightroom vs darktable. Don't get me wrong, I still use darktable instead of lightroon,, but my god, it is incredibly unstable and everything is just harder to do.

Substance Painter has no equal and neither does SpeedTree. And maybe JIRA if you have to pay for it as a business
Every open source office suite.
But then again, I also hate Microsoft office.
Google's suite is the most easiest I ever used. Followed by pure vanilla markdown.

Studio 3T over MongoDB Compass. Despite the comparatively dated UI, S3T is way more capable

Pixelmator for macOS blows GIMP out of the water and is a one-time purchase of $50. I've used Photoshop a lot at school and Pixelmator does 99% the same.
StylusLabs Write. I've tried all the FOSS hand-written note taking apps and none of them is practical to use.
Write just works. Produces SVGs that you can view in any browser and efficiently sync via git. Amazing.
It looks like an android app from 2012 and could really use some updates in other areas too.
I also don't get why it's closed source. It's free (as in beer) and there isn't even a way to donate.

Finale vs Lilypond. I'm convinced only the Borg actually uses Lilypond. It's obscure, terrifying and difficult to use. Maybe it's because I've been using finale for over 14 years but it's hard for me to even conceptualize how to make music in Lilypond, whereas Finale just does whatever I ask of it.
Musescore is also a good FOSS alternative but I still stick by finale.
