   Samuel Hierholzer's January 2025 post recommends three tools he believes should replace current standards: Oils, Radicle and Simplex Chat. Oils is a reimplementation of Bash with an incremental upgrade path, and he says its Bash-compatible part is in "late beta" with a 1.0 release targeted for 2025. Radicle is a decentralized git hosting tool that he calls superior to GitLab and GitHub because it is fully decentralized and federated. He describes Simplex Chat's reusable and one-time addresses as a model that should replace or inspire email.
