Daisy disk, parallels, fermatta, Alfred, istats, pixelmator pro (I like it better than photoshop)
There is also another alternative to Alfred - Raycast
Heard Raycast has some recently discovered security vulnerabilities. Evwrything does but theres articles on this one.
Ooooooo…. I’ll have to check that out
+1 for Raycast
In Alfred, I can search files so quickly by double tapping space bar and then use shift to quick look it. Is it possible to get the same reaction on Raycast?
In some way. I have option - f, or alias fs for file search. Then default action is to open, but you could CMD + Y to quick look.
Alfred user for ~10 years. Raycast for 1, and love it. 5x better.
I love iStats!
iStats only have intel version tho, is there an arm upgrade on the way?
It worked fine on my M1 and it works fine on my M3, but the sensor reading functionality on the M3 is only picking up on the SSD temperature sensor, unlike the M1 which had CPU and a plethora of other sensor monitoring working.
What does daisy disk do
Micro analyzes your HDD and other drives connected and lets you dig in and clean up storage
I’ve been using “clean my Mac” for years now and daisydisk seems like a major improvement. I’ll definitely give it a shot.
Can parallels use GPU cores yet? For me it’s pretty useless otherwise.
I’m not sure, I know the Mx series ones are optimized to use the Apple silicon and they can handle some gaming but not sure how well it uses the GPU
It could since 2021 I thought. I used to play overwatch on a windows 10 virtual machine on my M1 Max
What is the point of Alfred and how is it better than the default spotlight?
Alfred searches your files, iCloud, local HDD the web and everything else you can think of, spotlight is limited, and Alfred is customizable and faster
Raycast is better than Alfred, Affinity is better than Pixelmator. Both are better by a lot.
Also, bartender is great and Xnip is amazing.
I like Affinity, but on the go I like pixelmator because of how black and white it is, super simple - but yes, Affinity is great too - I haven’t used bartender in ages and I have heard of Xnip
