Here is my opinion on some FOSS software. PS, I'm too old to give a shit about team mentality, I just want stuff to work. Also, my motivation for liking FOSS is not so much "free", but rather "unencumbered and unrestricted shared human technology and knowledge".
Projects I wish had an edge over commercial proprietary software:
Mobile stuff that I think is better than the counterpart, or at least so good that I don't care if there is a counterpart
Thanks, great list!
Seconded
