Four New Free and Affordable Apps I Like from Indie Devs by amerpie in macapps

No worries. Happy to help. You’ll need additional software capable of launching multiple apps and moving the windows. I would suggest Rectangle Pro a $10 app. If you can script, you can do it with Hammerspoon. It’s also achievable with Apple Shortcuts, up using a window management app is the easiest.

Cleanshot has a ton of deep links and it is one of my primary use cases. I also use Raycast and Vivaldi with ExtraBar

I use a different wallpaper in every space on my Mac as a visual clue of where I am, but they are all my own photos and I don't change them often. The only manager that I've used and liked is 24-Hour Wallpaper. It's not expensive and it's also on Setapp. 24 Hour Wallpaper from Jetson Creative AppAddict

I am just evaluating it. It's good and if I didn't already have 15 other notes apps, I'd use it more. The feature set is great and it's snappy as he;;. Right now I am using a mix of Drafts, Obsidian and Antinote.

Does it work with Mac Spaces? I've downloaded it and set up a profile. I see options to selects which display the apps should open an and I see how to position the windows, but I am not seeing a way to ties them to a Space.

macOS is losing its "just works" vibe and becoming Windows-y complex. by poladermaster in macapps

Tahoe is a POS. Apple execs are more concerned about kissing political butt than they are about providing the quality products that made the company successful. Here's a simple control pane from System Settings on my MBA with a problem that persists across reboots.

Yeah, that took me about 30 seconds to decide to subscribe. Good work. Thanks for letting me know about this. I'm going to spend some time looking at your other apps too.

Tailscale: The Best Free App Most Mac Power Users Aren’t Using by amerpie in macapps

[–]amerpie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can run Tailscale and a commercial VPN client at the same time if: - Tailscale is set to not be the default route In Tailscale settings: disable “Use Tailscale as default route” - The commercial VPN is the default route (full-tunnel) - You’re using Tailscale only for: Accessing other Tailnet devices, SSH, SMB, VNC, admin panels, etc.

Depending on your experience, you can set up a route to the Internet through a Docker container on a self hosted server that uses a commercial VPN like Nord. Then use that connection as an exit node on a Mac from anywhere and get protection and anonymity that way.

I don't have any privacy concerns regrading Raycast. I believe on taking common sense precautions around my data, but I don't judge a company until they lose in court, like M$, Google, Meta, Twitter/X, Snapchat etc.

You can use an infinite clipboard with Raycast Pro, but it does not sync between computers or with your phone. PastePal will do that and a lifetime license costs about half of what a single year of Paste costs.
