Software: ffmpeg
Need: Converting arbitrary video/audio file formats into another
Other programs I’ve tried: Various free conversion websites
Not tried: Any Adobe products
Advantage: ffmpeg doesn’t have ads, or spam, or annoying pop-ups
Software: pandoc
Need: Converting arbitrary document file formats into another
Other programs I’ve tried: In-built conversion for office-like products
Advantage: pandoc supports a lot of formats, and generally deals with them really well—loss of information through conversion is pretty rare
On the topic of ffmpeg—additional shoutout to Handbrake, which is essentially ffmpeg with a GUI on top.
