Title says it all. I'll go first:

I don't really have any on my computer (all I use that for is Vim, Firefox, and Git), but on my phone: Orbot (basically Tor as a VPN on your phone).

Organic Maps for ... maps.

FluffyChat as chat client for matrix.

Joplin for note taking on any device.

AntennaPod for podcasts.

Organic Maps

Looks like it has supper detailed maps, has OpenStreetMap really gotten that good!?

OpenStreetMap is amazing. I always use the maps when I want to know details about some place. Much more detailed than Google Maps.

ETA: Especially when you want to go somewhere on foot or by bike, because Google Maps kinda sucks at showing footpaths etc.

I can't stand Google maps now. You have to fight it to show the actual map. The map, too, is now swarmed in Wall-E levels of marketing trash: bubbles, home businesses, auto play review videos, promoted fast food and coffee 8 miles away when I'm in a dense walkable area. The user reviews and navigation are still valuable, but literally every other aspect has went to shit.
