I figured it would just be good to get a list of safe options going, since the post is about unsafe options

Fair play!

If you need to convert audio or video, ffmpeg is your man

If you need to convert a document pandoc is what you need

If you need to convert an image, imagemagick

If you need to "convert" some online media into local media, yt-dlp

Can't think of another use case that people would regularly be converting off the top of my head, but happy to fill in any gaps if there are any
