What is the current state of open-source tax software?
I usually pay the cost of Turbotax premium because it will import all all of my transactions from my broker and generate the 1099 for me. Obviously this saves a lot of time.
Are there good open-source alternatives for filing taxes?

If you are California resident, you can use CalFile tonfile your taxes for free. If you create a fully authenticated account you can import some of your informations from previous year return and your W2.
