Not sure how decent yet, but got recommended Beyond Compare at work, which is a trial software and recently discovered it runs on linux.

It's basically a file compare tool, but can also compare images and looks really nice.

It also features, like on Windows, really handy entries for the right click menu of pretty much all popular Linux File managers.

I just bought a standard license for version 5, because it seems awesome and I wanna use it more.

L Vue scan pro is a must if you're into analog photography. The software that usually comes with scanners and printers generally doesn't work on Linux and if it does it's terrible.

MakeMKV. It's better than anything else.

You joke, but I actually have a license key for WinRAR that I use with the native rar cli on my Linux machines.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
