Thanks for sharing.
I was personally not motivated/good enough to write a new tool so I've wrote scripts to use rofi (easily adaptable to dmenu) as:

  • an app launcher
  • a clipboard manager
  • an infobar to show things like the date/time, memory usage, disk space, battery level, wifi signal…
  • an omnibar to perform an internet search, quick units conversions
  • a calculator for simple math
  • a bookmark manager (list, open, edit, add, remove)
  • a password/2FA token manager (list, edit, add, remove, autofill internet fields)
  • a wifi manager
  • a vpn manager

I've explained the basis here if you're curious. Even though I was bad at keeping my code up to date you may get some ideas to expand your program.

Thank you very much for your feedback. I've spent quite some time trying to create a minimalist and efficient theme. Very glad to hear that I met this goal.

I've explained my choice for zsh here

Nicely configured it's so convenient that I spend most of my time in the terminal and don't even use a file explorer anymore. It can also be expanded with some plugins for specific use-cases.

nomacs could be an option and is multi platform

Using Ublock picker (not zapper) you can block/allow elements per domain and save/revert your choices. But overall, like I already said, I agree with you that umatrix offered a more granular and easy approach. It would be nice to see that implemented in Ublock. I nonetheless understand why it's not the case since it would benefit only few users and may scared most of the others.

Hopefully umatrix will work for you for a long time. For me it was not and that's how I discovered Ublock and adapt to its "limitations". On a daily basis it helps me browse the internet like umatrix did. It's just sad that umatrix was not forked.

I noticed that it was not maintained when some pop-ups showed up while they used to be blocked. I also first missed that level of granularity from umatrix. You can replicate it with the element picker mode in Ublock but I realized that I could live with the "basic" Ublock advanced settings.

Umatrix was awesome but is unfortunately not maintained anymore since July 21, 2021. Ublock origin is a perfect replacement though and can be deeply configured behind its simpler appearance. Coupled with the LibRedirect add-on in the Librewolf browser and I can navigate ad and tracking free.

Yeah I avoid close source as much as possible and forgot about Magic Earth. As you noticed the features and privacy policy were sufficient to me to make an exception.

For Yuito, here is the F-Droid link that also lists the difference with Tusky (which I used first).

That's why he get me: minimalism is my motto ;)
Another suggestion: Magic Earth for navigation Also curious to know if we'll see you on mastodon one day? (my client is Yuito btw)

Great. If you search for Goodwy in Aurora for example you'll find a bunch of apps starting with "Right". Here is the list on GitHub as well: https://github.com/Goodwy
I may have additional suggestions if you're interested.

Any mastodon client? Also can I recommend the Right apps collection from Goodwy and Voyager as Lemmy client (I think they match the requirements to figure on your list).
