Compare Pins with alternatives
Pins vs AppEditor
AppEditor can hide apps, create launchers and change names and icons, though its development appears infrequent.
Pins vs Main Menu
Main Menu edits app menu entries with a modern GTK and libadwaita interface, but is a small project with few contributors.
Pins vs Shortcut
Shortcut only creates new .desktop files through a GTK4 form, without the menu hiding and icon changes Pins offers.
Pins vs Launcher StudioLauncher Studio focuses on creating launchers for AppImages and scripts with advanced fields and a raw source view, under the MIT license.
Pins vs MenuLibre
MenuLibre supports every FreeDesktop.org desktop entry field and includes a menu validation tool, in a traditional editor layout rather than a libadwaita app.
Pins vs Pin It!
Pin It! concentrates on adding AppImages and portable executables to the launcher, with editing and deletion of the entries it creates.
