Why choose open source options?

Why choose open source options?

There are many reasons or benefits of choosing open source tools as an alternative to expensive software.

Open source programs give you complete freedom with no strings attached or shadows.
The free source code of the software is available to anyone, so anyone can use, share, modify and read for their own needs.

(No spy eyes). High-income operating systems and tools track their users.
In some cases, open source tools offer performance features or benefits that go beyond their business models.
Finally, affordable - no hidden costs, completely free.

Here I want to list the best free software options for expensive apps.
Some of these programs run up to several thousand dollars, which is an open source alternative that provides it to the user for free.
