Introducing a cheat sheet for open source software alternatives
Download this cheat sheet to make looking for an open source alternative to common proprietary software quick and easy.

Luckily, we do not need to be bound by the constraints of proprietary software. There are tons of open source software alternatives to meet arguably every demand. If there isn't one already out there, someone (maybe you!) is bound to create one. One of the many benefits of choosing open source technology is that it is supported by the community. There's bound to be someone else out there eager to lend a new user a helping hand.
As open source technology continues to grow, it will no longer be known as the alternative but the default. Until then, use this handy cheat sheet to quickly find the open source tool you need! Next time your colleague shares a Google Sheet with you, why not suggest using EtherCalc next time and share this cheat sheet.

Thanks for the article. It's always good to get the word out about open source apps. Consider, instead of a static page, reviewing or promoting the use of agnostic resources out there. In this case, I'm thinking of alternativeto.
For years, they've been a great, curated, resource for those looking to replace one app with another. Their filters allow for focusing, not just on platforms but, on licensing.
I'm sure there are other resources like this but, this is one I keep coming back to, time and time again.
Thanks again for the article.
Line, Viber are open-source?! Since when?! Why Telegram is omitted? Also linked article in WhatsApp alternatives IS NOT about open-source alternatives!
