Pastebot, paid - a nice clipboard manager.I find keep awake useful when I need to monitor something without having to touch keyboard/mouse. One Switch, paid - useful for quickly connecting AirPods/bluetooth headphones, toggling multiple settings on/off.Here are a bunch of utilities I use daily and recommend: Nothing particularly amazing in this list of apps, thought Patric Wardle’s (a.k.a Objective-See) apps are great if you’re a bit paranoid - Lulu and KnockKnock are particularly nice. the man command is needed to let you install Mac app store apps from the command line.

So I’m briefly familiar with “how Macs work” in general, but this particular machine is my very first, brand new, current-gen and out of the box personal Apple computer.Īnd the question is: What should I do now? Which software you can suggest me to install? What settings/tunables I might change/add/update? What changed in Mac OS X during the recent years, and - probably the most important fact - which kind of “computing pleasures” I can “explore” or “experience” on modern Macintoshes? Oh, and we used the first Intel iMacs at middle school with some Apple-specific OpenOffice fork. To clarify, I previously had few PPC/G4 machines, and some kind of Air for a couple of days at work to do some video editing work for bunch of screencasts. I’ve just received a new 2020 MacBook Pro 13” (i7/32/1TB) couple of days ago and had a moment to sit with it during the weekend.
