• Resolving the Great Undo-Redo Quandary

  For a browsable clipboard history on macOS, I recommend LaunchBar (https://www.obdev.at/products/launchbar/; docs at https://www.obdev.at/resources/launchbar/help/ClipboardHistory.html). I used to use the Clipboard Plugin of the free and open source app Quicksilver (https://qsapp.com/), which worked fine but was slightly less streamlined. Some people prefer Alfred (https://www.alfredapp.com/help/features/clipboard/). - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• Shortcat – Manipulate macOS masterfully, minus the mouse

  This is great. Reminds me of QuickSilver[1]. I'm evaluating HomeRow[2] for a VIM driving the Mac OS, will try this as well. I love how: a. Accessibility features are making the OS more accessible for everyone through automation b. Good the accessibility implementation is on the Mac that most applications are inherently compatible with solutions like this.

• App Switcher on MAC

  I tried a lot, and https://manytricks.com/witch/ is what I stuck with for the ONLY decent alt tab experience I could find (it’s heavily customizable). I don’t understand this number thing, finding them like that takes the same reading action you could be doing while you press alt tab for each… and you’d be done, but instead I see so many apps offer that number route. It just seems like double work to me ;). Source: 11 months ago

• Ask HN: Is it possible to use spotlight to switch between windows of same app?

  I don't believe so, however if you've not see Witch[0] it's a spotlight replacement. Honestly fantastic, one of the few apps I miss the most after having to move the primary workstation back to Windows. [0]https://manytricks.com/witch/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Linux is Making Apple Great Again

  I've been issued a Mac Laptop for work, and for the first 2 months by far the #1 issue for me was the alt-tabbing. I've been successfully using Witch to restore normal window-tabbing (in place of application-tabbing): https://manytricks.com/witch/ Unfortunately after MacOS ~Vista~ Catalina you still need to grant Witch permissions for each application you're alt-tabbing to that Witch hasn't seen yet, but... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago
