Software

Cross-platform

Media

Windows

PowerToys
- it's kind of hard to use Windows once you get used to using this

Archive Utility

NanaZip
- 7-zip fork for Windows w/ zstd (which I use a lot), brotli, etc.

Package Managers

Winget

Chocolatey

Mounting ISO, CUE images

Windows versions 8 and above natively support mounting ISOs. However CUE images are not supported. WinCDEmu is a lightweight, open-source disc emulator that supports mounting CUE, NRG, IMG, ISO, etc. images.

Master Control Panel / God Mode

(Misnomer; you probably won't use this either)

Shows a list of all the available settings on Windows in a single view.

Open it by exceuting the following command or saving it as a shortcut: explorer.exe shell:::{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

MacOS

Clipboard Management

maccy
- not sure why macOs doesn't have a native clipboard manager like Windows and KDE

Terminal Emulator

iTerm2
- terminal with features you'd probably want

Package Manager

HomeBrew
- package manager everyone uses but it is noticeably slow

Video Players

IINA
- video player based on mpv with native macOS UI
