These apps are classified into four categories:

• Productivity
• Games
• Creativity
• Miscellaneous

AppFlowy

In the Productivity section we have AppFlowy. This is a privacy-first open source workspace for your notes, tasks, databases, and more. I use this application offline, and I know a lot of people may complain about the need to create an account and cloud sync, but it works very smoothly. Their features are:

• 100% control of your data
• Download and install AppFlowy on your local machine
• You own and control your personal data
• 100% data control You can host AppFlowy wherever you want
• No vendor lock-in
• For those with no coding experience, AppFlowy enables you to create apps that suit your needs
• It’s built on a community-driven toolbox, including templates, plugins, themes, and more
• Faster, more stable with support for offline mode
• It’s also better integrated with different devices
• Moreover, AppFlowy enables users to access features and possibilities not available on the web

It offers a lot of AI features and synchronization with the mobile app, that requires an account on the website. The free tier is up to 2 users. You can check it out on their website.

You can install “AppFlowy” by clicking the install button on the web site or manually using this command:

Flood It

In the Games section we have Flood It. This is a game with the simple premise of flooding the entire board with one color in the least amount of moves possible. Challenge yourself with this simple, yet addictive strategy game, where you need to flood-it as efficiently as you can! It’s a puzzle to pass time. Personally I’ve spent a lot of hours solving Flood It puzzles.
