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?

My wife and I use it all the time for things like grocery lists, packing lists, etc. It’s nice to be an able to collaborate in real time on a checklist, and I haven’t found an app that can replicate that convenience.

Joplin? Can basically do all this.

Does Joplin actually have real-time (as in two people simultaneously editing with two cursors and changes streaming in a character at a time) collaboration? All I found was some vague language about shared notebooks and some guy’s stab at a real-time collaboration plugin that hasn’t been touched in 3 years.

Realtime? No. There are various Tab Solutions for that,like Etherpad,etc

But especially if you selfhost you can put in really short synch times, that will give you near real time collaboration and comes out of the bo without any plugins.
