  • User Driven UI
    The menubar being standardized across most apps, which enables that search function, customization of the key shortcuts for any menu item in any app, and enables the creation do their party apps that present menu items in a different way[0] is one of the most underrated features of macOS IMO. It’s the Wild West when it comes to menubars on Windows and Linux, with there being more ways to implement a menubar than... - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago
  • App that constrains the apps menu in the menu bar?
    If you do find a way to hide app menus you might consider using Paletro or a similar extension for an automation tool, I know Alfred has a workflow for it, I'm guessing Raycast, Launchbar and maybe even Keyboard Maestro do to. An option like Menuwhere might be a better choice if you don't like typing for menu items. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Master your apps with Button, a crowdsourced menu bar guide to keyboard shortcuts and more.
    How is performance these days? I used to use it or an alternative workflow and there was always a few second lag when I activated the workflow in each respective app for the first time after rebooting. I ended up switching to Paletro for the time being but wouldn’t mind one less thing running. Source: over 1 year ago
  • CheatSheet Alternative or with another Shortcut
    Another CheatSheet alternative is Paletro, a command palette with a spotlight/Alfred-like interface. It’s on Setapp, or a license is $7 . Source: over 1 year ago
  • One click to AirDrop?
    Paletro is a nice (non-free) option. And it works in almost all apps. Source: over 1 year ago

  • Always visible side-panel with tracking apps
    Thanks, just to confirm is this the app https://slidepad.app ? Ive tried plus in the settings and main screen but it just brings upsettings and browser apps. Source: over 1 year ago
  • looking for a browser that pops out on the right side of the screen
    I think you are thinking of Slidepad https://slidepad.app. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Macbook for programming/coding
    Pretty much a premium linux experience out of the box, also things like Quicklook make it easy to instantaneously view a ton of files without even opening apps from documents to media files. Especially helpful if you're going through documentation and typically there's a bunch of it in various formats. Without Quicklook, you would have to open a bunch of MS Office apps to view documentation that comes with large... Source: almost 2 years ago
  • SlideOver for windows
    Hm, no, I am not aware of any feature of that kind being developed by anyone. I have found this https://slidepad.app/ but it's only kind of what you want and MacOS only... Source: almost 2 years ago
