Sick of overpriced subscriptions, so let's build a list of actual free gems. I’m talking everything from dev utilities to security tools that don't suck. Drop your go-to stack below.

I'm loving Obsidian for note-taking, it's free, open-source, and has all the features I need. Plus, it's a great companion to Notion for organizing everything. Markdown editor with tagging and linking is a game-changer for me.

I'm all about Trello for project management, it's free to use and has some really useful features like boards and labels. Another one that's super underrated is Notion, it's like a swiss army knife for note-taking and organization. Also gotta give a shoutout to Canva, it's an amazing tool for non-designers like me to whip up some decent graphics.

Definitely DefiLlama, best way to track TVL and prices without any garbage fees or paywalls. For the techies, Uptime Kuma is absolute gold for self-hosted monitoring. Can't go wrong with either.

OBS is the GOAT for anything media-related, honestly can't beat it. If you're digging into on-chain data, Dune's free tier is a total godsend for pulling queries without paying a sub.

Honestly, you can’t go wrong with OBS Studio if you’re recording tutorials or streaming your dev work. For keeping tabs on your server uptime, UptimeRobot is an absolute lifesaver.

OBS Studio is the GOAT for streaming and recording, literally blows paid alternatives out of the water. Also, Notion’s free tier is legit for keeping your alpha and project notes in check.

I personally love Trello for project management, it's super intuitive and got some great integrations with other tools. Another one I use quite often is TinyPNG for compressing images, it saves me tons of space on my server. Been using Notion for notes and wiki stuff too, it's pretty versatile and flexible.
