Software	Score
org.musescore.MuseScore "The software itself is not so bad, it is a pretty simple and complete for a free software. The big problem is that there is no system version (only flatpak), which means a huge waste of disk space, poor integration and a loss of performance. "	3
xdot "Very practical, simple, light and efficient program. It doesn't have a lot of features but it does the little it does very well!"	5
org.audacityteam.Audacity "I don't see any interest in the flathub version. The modular version is working so well! This version takes a huge amount of disk space to install. I would like to remind you that the strength of Linux lies partly in its modularity."	1
com.discordapp.Discord "Apart from the features it offers, nothing is right! This package is not modular and takes a lot of space to install. It is extremely buggy on many things: There are huge memory leaks - It uses a lot of cpu even in standby mode - It does not see all the folders in the file system - Audio and video codecs for multimedia communication are of terrible quality - He frequently plants. In short, it is a software coded much too fast, and therefore fatally badly coded."	1
python3-av "Very efficient and complete module. Unfortunately, the documentation is very poor."	4
ffmpeg "Excellent tool in all! It's powerful, light, ultra complete! The video viewer is the most efficient of all those I tested. It is much better than VLC and celluloide in terms of cpu and ram usage. Congratulations to the programmers of ffmpeg and libav!"	5
boot-repair "He once managed to solve a dual-boot problem for me. The other times, he didn't manage to fix my problem. I guess it works sometime."	3
openshot-qt "Too bad the source code quality is so bad. It has a functional, rather intuitive interface and offers uninteresting features. Unfortunately, the source code does not respect at all the python conventions, it does not manage RAM very well, it does not have an optimization graph so it is very slow, it has a strong tendency to pixelize and introduce artifacts (due to the absence of graph)."	3
audacity "Despite its popularity and number of features, this software has remained intuitive, light and fast! Congratulations to the developers! In my opinion, it is the best basic audio processing software."	5
openssh-client "A must have package! I use it very often and I have never encountered a single bug!"	5
unison-gtk "Very easy to use. I use it to synchronize in ssh and it works pretty well. On the other hand, I see several defects: 1) It is not very backward compatible, difficult to run on machines with different versions. 2) It does not detect the renaming, instead it recreates a new file, which is heavy. 3) At the time of synchronization, it does not intelligently prioritize certain files, which tends to fragment the disk. And it prevents from stopping and resuming on the way."	3
google-earth-pro-stable "Works pretty well overall. However, it consumes a lot of RAM. It is very slow on low-powered PC."	4
kcolorchooser "Great tool, very intuitive! It is worthy of a good linux software: light, simple, efficient, doesn't do much but does it well."	5
htop "Very practical, light and efficient! Small problem, for machines with many cores, the cpu usage bars become unreadable."	4
hypnotix "Excellent, simple and effective! Since the update to version 3.2, the French channels work for me!"	5
nemo-audio-tab "Works very well for mp3, does not work for wav and ogg, only works halfway for flac. (a pull request is underway to fix the bug) in the meantime you can replace the files "/usr/share/nemo-audio-tab/nemo-audio-tab.glade" and "/usr/share/nemo-python/extensions/nemo-audio-tab.py" by those of this repository : https://github.com/robinechuca/nemo-extensions/tree/master/nemo-audio-tab/nemo-extension . (the new dependencies are apt install ffmpeg && pip install ffmpeg-python)"	3
