  • flathub

    Pull requests for new applications to be added (by x80486)

  • Go to flathub.org, download a file, sideload, reboot system. It sucks, I agree. But I set up the flathub repo before handing it to my family members. It's not a "workaround hack" lol.

  • toolbox-vscode

    Toolbox Visual Studio Code integration

  • I in the end managed to get it working to use VSCode with remote server. There is a nice script.

  • kinto

    Mac-style shortcut keys for Linux & Windows. (by rbreaves)

  • I am the author of sorun.me if I did not make that clear - and the author of kinto.sh which thousands of people have starred, downloaded and like. There's nothing fishy about it - anyone can view and read the entire source. What it installs is clearly laid out in the configs yaml files and the modular script files as well. And "Desktop Linux for Creators" I think is fairly clear - it is a project designed for creators, and perhaps specifically to those that like their workflows from using macs as macs tend to be used by creatives the most. So mostly things get simplified and streamlined to work better and out of the box.
