I've used freetaxusa.com for a few years now. It's not exactly free, not for how I file taxes anyway, but it's cheaper than something like TurboTax.
Free federal, $15 state filing and they'll try to upsell you on some support and audit defense schemes. Overall a pretty decent value for the convenience factor of not having to fill out paper forms, copying, and mailing. Just make sure you pay for the filing fee directly with a card. Do not choose the option to have them take it out of your refund. That incurs an extra $25 fee.
It's absolutely free in the Netherlands and in most cases, you can use an app and just check if the prefilled values are correct.
