  • opensnitch

    OpenSnitch is a GNU/Linux interactive application firewall inspired by Little Snitch.

  • It's a major uphill battle to stop any tracking on a phone. Your control of the device is extremely limited. On a PC though, use Simplewall for Windows and OpenSnitch for Linux. Both are firewall tools that will alert you of outgoing connections and allow for you to setup rules. Kind of like Zonealarm back in the day.

  • OpenPeriod

    A free, open-source period tracker app for Android

  • Looks like someone is creating one now. Can't speak for whether it's ready or prime time, but it's days old so I'm guessing no.

  • 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.
