I still use Font Renamer to manage my font collection. It works great but hasn’t received an update since 2008. Even the website looks straight out of the Windows XP era.

    I use windirstat all the time, although it’s slow as shit I like the way it works.

    I used Winamp all the way up until last year at which point I finally sold my gaming PC and switched over to Mac + PlayStation. Out of everything on my PC I probably miss Winamp the most!

    I still use DVD Decrypter, mostly to rip old TV Series I have where I want the files split up by episode when ripping.

    MP3Gain, the latest stable version was released in 2005 and I’ve been using it since then. It adjusts the volume level of MP3s using ReplayGain so that you don’t have to change the volume between tracks. There may be newer software out there that does the same thing, but MP3Gain is free/open source and it works fine for my needs. I still maintain a library of MP3s, partly because my car is too old to do Carplay/Android Auto, but it can play MP3s from a USB drive.

    I like to post to my WordPress blog from my desktop, so I use Open Live Writer. It’s allow me the option to write without being connected to the Internet. I doubt it still in development.

    RPG Maker XP was released in 2004, nearly 20 years ago, and yet the entire Pokemon fan game community uses it exclusively. Pokemon Essentials, by far the best framework for creating fan games, is written for it, and is still maintained to this day. It’s such a large complicated project, with a huge ecosystem of plugins and resources, that it’s impractical to migrate to the newer RPG Maker software that has been released since.

      Pokémon Reborn has been one of the best Pokémon fangames I’ve enjoyed. Never thought I’d see the day it was completed, but it was last year. It supports wondertrade, online battles, trading and more, and has custom terrain effects.

      I’ll have to check that out. I’ve been using Space Sniffer. I like how it updates in realtime.

    In a previous life I did the occasional custom home theater remote control program job. Like Harmony, but better (I think). Anyway, my personal remote is a 20 year old remote with programming software from the same era.

    The connection to the pc to upload the program is a serial Jack. My small form factor pc doesn’t have room for a permanent serial card, so I use a serial to usb adapter that’s 15 or so years old.

    I’ve got the drivers for all of this stuff tucked away in multiple backups, alongside .txt files with notes on how to get it all going again, when, like this week, I add new gear and need to tweak the remote.

      I guess Harmony counts for me, since Logitech officially killed the product. The day my Harmony account stops working will be a sad day.

        I have been looking for an alternative. Haven’t really found one yet.
