Audacity was the first one I thought of.

Or MultiMC, PolyMC, the Sodium mod, or the original Minecraft Forge.

Wait, what happened to Audacity?

I believe they were bought by someone and eventually implemented some questionable practices. I don't remember the exact details, maybe someone else does.

I remember reading an update which said that the company went back on most (or all?) the negative changes and it's ok to use again.

I didn't confirm it myself, but that's part of why the alternatives aren't seeing as much development now
