if you’re not helping him no need to talk. Everyone knows that let him post it’s none of your business
You can give Sidebar a try: https://sidebarapp.net It’s a Dock replacement
But I might be biased since I‘m the author 🙂
Alfred
Bartender if you have a lot of menubar icons. The functionality should be built in to macOS by now.
Honestly, start using it, and if something bothers you, try to find a solution for it.
Half of these ‘must have’ apps are useless to most people lol
My two cents on some of the stuff mentioned:
Definitely get a password manager. I personally use Bitwarden but feel free to look around.
AlDente works fine until it nearly broke my battery controller. YMMV, but it could be useful
IINA is brilliant, no complaints.
Rectangle is nice to have when you need to have more than two apps on screen at the same time.
For some really cool widgets you can check out Ubersicht.
Highly recommend Magnet.me for snapping Windows.
Downie
Magnet and CleanMyMac
Is it like Alfred?
Rectangle for snapping windows, like on Windows.
Keka for managing zip files, or The Unarchiver if you prefer simplicity.
IINA for watching video files, much like VLC, but with slightly better UI.
Bartender for hiding icons on your Menu Bar.
Those are the true “must-have” that I have on every mac of mine. I will add later if I can remember anything else.
Is there a free version of the word app on mac?
Google docs
Apple has its own built in Word equivalent. I stick to Google Suite though.
Is there an alternative for Bartender? I looked it up and it’s 24$ CND lol ridiculous
You also have the Hidden Bar app, it’s the one I use and it’s amazing.
IntelliJ
There’s no “must have” apps except the ones you need to use everyday, for some people that might be Office, for some it’s Python hell even Steam.
I’m a dev so iterm2
Raycast is great, has lots of utility and my favorite function is to snap windows. Hidden bar is good because it cleans up the menu bar or whatever its called. Itsycal because I don’t like how mac doesn’t have an inbuilt mini calendar easily accessible like Windows. DROPZONE IS A MUST. I CAN’T TELL YOU HOW MANY HOURS IT’S SAVED. Hand mirror is a pretty cool app. Usage is nice too. Monitor control if you have an external display.
