Favorite Linux Software

Last Updated 12/2020 This is a list of my favorite software applications for Linux. I hope this list helps you discover some new and amazing software that runs on Linux. I've provided links to the project webpages for more information. Installation of the software should be done via your distros repository such as Ubuntu (sudo apt install Kdenlive) or Arch (pacman -S kdenlive). Some of the software is available as a SNAP or Flatpak so check for universal package options if it is not in your distro repository or software store. One command to install most of the non-proprietary software listed below in Arch distro: $ sudo pacman -S kdenlive peek gimp inkscape tilix fish calibre flameshot krita smplayer strawberry guvcview darktable shotwell remmina thunderbird obs-studio telegram-desktop feedreader deja-dup simple-scan Kdenlive : Open source non-linear video editor with powerful video creation and export abilities Lightworks : Not Open Source Professional video editing tool Ghost : Open Source alternative to WordPress for creating websites, blogs, and more.

DasGeek Super Trippy Guide To The Dark Web!

Dun dun duhhhhhhhhhhhhn No I do not list any sites that directly contain illegal activity. Guide To Getting On The Dark Web First, the dark web is not some nafarious place where only illegal things happen. It's a pretty awesome place if you know where to (like a big city) There is nothing illegal or wrong with surfing the dark web. Just make sure to hang around the well lit areas and don't go searching for the bad stuff. You know...just like the regular internet. Getting on the Dark Web is not hard at all. Simply download the Tor Browser. Make sure you download the browser actually from Tor and not any of the fake sites. The official site is https://www.torproject.org/ It is recommended to use a VPN in conjunction with Tor if you're goal is to remain anonymous. However, Tor does a great job of that by itself if you're not going to shady sites you should be fine. Now that you have the Tor browser you can browse .onion sites. Those sites are on the DARK WEB (dun dun duhhhhhhhhhn!)
