  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • ImageGlass

    🏞 A lightweight, versatile image viewer

    Been using ImageGlass (https://imageglass.org/) for a few years now for this very reason.

  • mpc-hc

    Media Player Classic

    BTW, if you want the latest version of MPC-HC there's a few folk still making updates for it here: https://github.com/clsid2/mpc-hc/releases/ Officially the project might be over but this guy is keeping it alive in this fork.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • feh

    a fast and light image viewer

    It is a lightweight image viewer for Linux distributions.

  • gwenview

    Image viewer by KDE

    Uh, no, I'm saying FIX the photo software yourself. For example, here's the source code for Gwenview. If there's an issue such as poor performance, any user can look at the code and attempt to correct it.

  • mpv

    🎥 Command line video player

    Think they meant mpv which is pretty good and has youtube-dl integration (yt-dlp can be used in its place).

  • QuickLook

    Bring macOS “Quick Look” feature to Windows

  • mpv-winbuild-cmake

    CMake-based MinGW-w64 Cross Toolchain

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • mpv.net

    Discontinued 🎞 mpv.net is a modern media player for Windows that works just like mpv. [Moved to: https://github.com/mpvnet-player/mpv.net] (by stax76)

    MPV is great, it opened every file format I've thrown at it without any complaints. There are many forks but MPV.NET is very user friendly.

  • nomacs

    nomacs is a free image viewer for windows, linux, and mac systems.

    lightweight and blazingly fast: https://nomacs.org/
