What apps would you love to have open-source alternatives for?
It seems like the FOSS community is continuing to grow, and FOSS apps keep getting better (Immich reallh blew my mind recently), which is a big win 😎 but there are still many apps I use that I would kill for an open source alternative. I am curious what you guys think? Are there any apps you'd love alternatives for?

A service that provides sheet music. I am learning the piano and I find it difficult to find accurate and reasonable sheet music for much I want to play. Some of it is obscurity, but even when it's findable, the service is monetized to make it unpleasant
The reason for this is copyright. I'm surprised guitar tablature is as easy to find as it is.
not really a good solution, but it might honestly be worth a look to see if you find any public domain copies of sheet music on archive.org or something like that, probably won't be very new at all. But i imagine it would be just about the lowest effort way of getting sheet music. (just hope that it hasn't changed in the last 100 or so years lol)
The ultimate goal of the IMSLP is to gather all public domain music scores, in addition to the music scores of all contemporary composers (or their estates) who wish to release them to the public free of charge
IMSLP currently has 231,406 works, 755,950 scores, 83,070 recordings, 27,907 composers, and 2,027 performers.
