The profit motive is why they throw so much money at it. I like FOSS better too but these differences can't easily be separated.

I really try to like these Apps.

But the OpenStreetMap's App sucks. I can't do a U-Turn on the Autobahn. And no, I won't break through a closed Exit. Is there any way to make it that it find a new alternative route when I "miss" or simply can't take the Exit?

Which proprietary app is better than the open source version?

MS office is arguably the best office suite in terms of features. The overall user experience is awful though.

Agreed, I run Brics CAD on my linux box.

I only chose Brics CAD over AutoCAD/Draftsight because they have a NATIVE linux version. This is for 2D CAD work only.

I haven't had a need for the 3D stuff yet.

Yeah okay. Damn.

I used Joplin everyday for half a year but switched to Obsidian after that. They both essentially do the same, but I found the latter to be more adaptable to my needs and paradoxically easier to modify.

Don't get me wrong, the open source one in still great. Served me well while I was using it.

It probably isn't.
