Krita is a great paint program, so my brother uses it on Windows.
K3b is the closest thing Linux has to a proper Nero Burning ROM equivalent where everything else is Adaptec Easy CD Creator or worse, so my mother and other brother use it on Lubuntu.
Filelight has smart caching and selective rescan that kicks Baobab's ass on a rotating platter drive, so we all use it on Linux. (And Baobab's radial view has been playing a perpetual game of catch-up with Filelight since it copied the design off Filelight in the KDE 3 era.)
Okular supports features that Evince doesn't, such as grab-scrolling, drawing a rectangle to zoom or select, and choosing between text or an image to send to the clipboard, table selection, and a built-in magnifier. It also supports more file formats. For that reason, my mother keeps it installed on her Lubuntu system.
I prefer KRename and KDiff3 to all competing options I've tried.
Ark's integrated KPart-based preview is great. All it needs is a readout of the total uncompressed size of the archive in the status bar, better drag-and-drop support, and smart handling of how .deb files are archives within archives, and it'll beat file-roller in every category.
Is there a GTK+ equivalent to KCachegrind?
There was a period when I was on LXDE, and I still used all of the things mentioned.
