Mine is Local Send which is a FOSS alternative similar to air drop that works across a variety of devices.

Would be awesome if they offered an alternative forge & chat so they aren’t locked entirely to proprietary software for communication / contribution. 😔

Yeah I'm also not a fan of discord but tbh nothing super interesting happens on the discord. Most important discussion is on GitHub. I know that's also not open source but it's at least publicly accessible and indexable.

I'd love to see a tic80 community gain some traction on Lemmy.
