SponsorBlock
SponsorBlock
Users submit when a sponsor happens from the extension, and the extension automatically skips sponsors it knows about using a privacy-preserving query system. It also supports skipping other categories, such as intros, outros and reminders to subscribe, and skipping to the point with highlight. To prevent one submission with a lot of votes never being able to be replaced, I decided to use a weighted random distribution based on the equation on the right. This formula makes the first few votes matter a lot more than votes on a submission that already has a lot of votes. This gives newly submitted segments a better chance of being sent out to users to get votes. So, most users will get the best submission, but some users will get lesser votes submissions so that they can either be upvoted or downvoted.Starting Price: Free -

Bluhell Firewall
Diego Casorran
Get a faster browsing experience by blocking nasty web resources using Bluhell Firewall, the lightweight ad-blocker, and the tracking/privacy protector. All we know is the availability of popular AdBlockers lying around, but frankly, these are too bloated with several features and options which most of us don't use beyond the defaults. So, this extension was made for those of us who don't care about all that stuff but do about just getting rid of all the nasty resources being loaded by websites. This is a lightweight extension (ie, 30KB compared to ~700KB of other popular adblockers), which was made with performance in mind. No configurable options, subscriptions, additional features, etc. You can turn the extension on/off at any time by clicking the toolbar button (Fx Desktop) or touching the menu item entry (Fx for Android). Every time a certain resource wants to be loaded we will have to iterate through a list of seven compiled patterns.Starting Price: Free -

Technitium DNS Server
Technitium
Block ads & malware at DNS level for your entire network! Self host a DNS server for privacy & security.

It works out-of-the-box with no or minimal configuration and provides a user-friendly web console accessible using any modern web browser. Nobody really bothers about domain name resolution since it works automatically behind the scenes and is complex to understand. Most computer software uses the operating system's DNS resolver that usually queries the configured ISP's DNS server using UDP protocol. This way works well for most people but, your ISP can see and control what website you can visit even when the website employs HTTPS security. Not only that, some ISPs can redirect, block or inject content into websites you visit even when you use a different DNS provider like Google DNS or Cloudflare DNS.Starting Price: Free -

Luakit
Luakit
Luakit is a highly configurable browser framework based on the WebKit web content engine and the GTK+ toolkit. It is very fast, extensible with Lua, and licensed under the GNU GPLv3 license. It is primarily targeted at power users, developers and anyone who wants to have fine-grained control over their web browser’s behavior and interface. While switching to the WebKit 2 API means a vastly improved security situation, not all distributions of Linux package the most up-to-date version of WebKitGTK+, and several package very outdated versions that have many known vulnerabilities. As of September 2019, Arch, Debian, Fedora, Gentoo, and Ubuntu all have the latest version of WebKitGTK+, but OpenSUSE ships an outdated and vulnerable version in their stable channel. If you use Luakit for browsing, it is your responsibility to ensure that your distribution packages an up-to-date version of WebKitGTK+!Starting Price: Free -

Gzip
GNU Operating System
GNU Gzip is a popular data compression program originally written by Jean-loup Gailly for the GNU project. Mark Adler wrote the decompression part. We developed this program as a replacement for compress because of the Unisys and IBM patents covering the LZW algorithm used by compress. These patents made it impossible for us to use compress, and we needed a replacement. The superior compression ratio of gzip is just a bonus. Stable source releases are available on the main GNU download server (HTTPS, HTTP, FTP) and its mirrors; please use a mirror if possible. gzip reduces the size of the named files using Lempel-Ziv coding (LZ77). Whenever possible, each file is replaced by one with the extension ‘.gz’, while keeping the same ownership modes, access, and modification times. (The default extension is ‘z’ for MSDOS, OS/2 FAT, and Atari.) If no files are specified, the standard input is compressed to the standard output.Starting Price: Free -

Yarn
Yarn is a package manager which doubles down as project manager. Whether you work on one-shot projects or large monorepos, as a hobbyist or an enterprise user, we've got you covered. Split your project into sub-components kept within a single repository. Yarn guarantees that an install that works now will continue to work the same way in the future. Yarn cannot solve all your problems, but it can be the foundation for others to do it. We believe in challenging the status quo. What should the ideal developer experience be like? Yarn is an independent open-source project tied to no company. Your support makes us thrive. Yarn already knows everything there is to know about your dependency tree, it even installs it on the disk for you. So, why is it up to Node to find where your packages are? Instead, it should be the package manager's job to inform the interpreter about the location of the packages on the disk and manage any dependencies between packages and even versions of packages.Starting Price: Free -

Nix
NixOS
Nix is a tool that takes a unique approach to package management and system configuration. Learn how to make reproducible, declarative, and reliable systems. Nix builds packages in isolation from each other. This ensures that they are reproducible and don't have undeclared dependencies, so if a package works on one machine, it will also work on another. Nix makes it trivial to share development and build environments for your projects, regardless of what programming languages and tools you’re using. Nix ensures that installing or upgrading one package cannot break other packages. It allows you to roll back to previous versions and ensures that no package is in an inconsistent state during an upgrade. Nix is a purely functional package manager. This means that it treats packages like values in purely functional programming languages such as Haskell, they are built by functions that don’t have side effects, and they never change after they have been built.Starting Price: Free -

Pacman
Pacman
Pacman is a utility which manages software packages in Linux. It uses simple compressed files as a package format, and maintains a text-based package database (more of a hierarchy), just in case some hand tweaking is necessary. Pacman does not strive to "do everything." It will add, remove and upgrade packages in the system, and it will allow you to query the package database for installed packages, files and owners. It also attempts to handle dependencies automatically and can download packages from a remote server. Version 2.0 of Pacman introduced the ability to sync packages (the - sync option) with a master server through the use of package databases. Prior to this, packages would have to be installed manually using the --add and - upgrade operations.Starting Price: Free -
