You build a bridge and do they call you Drath'nor the Bridge Builder? You educate the young and so they call you Drath'nor the Teacher? You protect your sheep in a storm and do they call you Drath'nor the Shepard?

No

But you make ONE dodgy curry for the village...

What are some FOSS programs that you think are a far better user experience than their counterparts?

KDE is better than Windows

Audible Audacity is more audio programme than most people need

KdenLive is more video editor than most people need

Kritta is more art programme than most people need

There are edge cases where there are professional programmes that might be better but unless you are a professional you do not need them and even semi-pros would likely be better served by those three

What's a quote that has stuck with you for your whole life?

"The best time to plant a tree is fifty years ago. The second best time is right now" - essentially don't worry about what you could have done better, or what could have been, make now and the future as good as you can

and

"If you don't fall off occasionally, you're not trying hard enough" - originally told to me in the context of learning to windsurf (I still can't windsurf), but applicable in a lot of areas. This doesn't mean try to fall off, it means failure is a natural part of growth, not something to be shunned
