Do you use any software (mainly) developed in China? (not TikTok...)


For example I use Ventoy which makes deploying USB bootable Linux live CDs very easy, you just have to copy over the .iso file https://www.ventoy.net/en/index.html

It's also on Github https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy

But I'd love to hear about other chinese software too that people use every day.

StarRocks, it’s a Linux Foundation project now, but a lot of the initial team and community behind it came from China.

Funny that I hadn’t heard of them in the database space till they showed up at the top of ClickBench. Makes me wonder what other interesting projects I’m missing out on in China.
