This section of SoftwareEquivalents holds equivalents to Internet software.

Please find your desired application, and use the Linux-equivalent instead!

One application may hold more equivalents. People are different, and therefore one application may not fully equal the parts you use in the "original" application.

The applications

Feel free to add your own choices, but please keep the applications sorted alphabetically. (Also, please refrain from adding Windows programs running in WINE. Instead you can contribute to the official list of programs which run in WINE)
