It's also about personal programs you wrote for your specific use case, 
as well as programs that don't make sense for other people and would just 
be confusing.

Eg, I use wwb. Most people don't even know what it is.

Most people wanted git. I installed it system-wide until it became part 
of 9front. Netsurf can be similar.

It's about software you, the admin, provide for all users, or software 
you, the user, provide for yourself.
