Scheduled tasks

Software center/snap store: Now most modern distros support flatpak and/or snap, both of which have a lot more choice in the closed-source department. Ubuntu's software "store" (the suitcase icon with an A on it) is the snap store, so you can access the snap catalog and install from there. Those apps are not maintained by Ubuntu however, so there's that, but they're run in a sandbox to protect your system.
