I submitted an early bug during the iPadOS 16 beta cycle, and an update came out a few days later with a fix. It’s beautiful and clean and easy to read and the keyboard commands are excellent. My favourite RSS reader by far is Unread. If you like Alfred, or any othe launcher, by all means keep using it, I’ve just been falling more and more in love with Raycast. When I started using Alfred, it was the new kid on the block in launchers and took huge steps forward in usability over QuickSilver, today Raycast is doing the same thing to Alfred and current launchers. Take the Obsidian plugin for Alfred as an example, to open a new vault I have to remember to type oo, in Raycast I just select the Open Vault command and it lists all the vaults that Obsidian knows about. What I like about Raycast is the plugins that are simpler to understand than Alfred. I even swapped the hotkeys between the two at the end of 2022 making Raycast my default launcher. This year I’ve moved more and more of my workflow to Raycast though. It let me store my snippets, and have clipboard history, and I even spent a bit of time with the automation features. I may still not be doing the best thumbnails possible, but they’re far better than I’d come up with on my own.įor years I’ve used Alfred as an alternative launcher on macOS. Canva provides a bunch of templates to get me started on thumbnails though so I use them and tweak them as needed. I’m not a designer by any stretch of the imagination so coming up with something from scratch is pretty much always going to be terrible. I do love the application though, and I do use it on macOS once a week so it gets in this list.Įvery thumbnail you see on my YouTube channel is done via Canva. Okay, I said that this was my macOS apps which means I’ll have to admit that I mostly use Canva on my iPad. It was as simple as plugging my iPad into a USB C hub and then to the HDMI cable on the TV. We used it over Christmas to watch our favourite holiday movies while visiting with my in-laws since the movies weren’t available on the streaming services at their house. While Plex isn’t free, I paid for the lifetime license a few years ago and it was $200 well spent. To get my media into Plex I use MakeMKV and Handbrake. That means I still own and purchase discs and copy their content to my own digital library which is housed in Plex. While many people are totally fine with streaming, I like to own as much of the media I consume as possible. If you’re looking for a place to store your plaintext notes across macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS, iPadOS, or Android – then Obsidian should be your first stop. I’m using it to research and then write a book.Įven that barely scratches the surface of what Obsidian can do via the extensive plugin ecosystem that is available for the application. I use it to research and write all my blog posts/YouTube scripts. Obsidian is a cross-platform note-taking application, but that doesn’t do justice to how much power is in Obisidian for everyone. Today’s list is what has stuck for 2022 and I’ll be using in 2023 on macOS. I try out lots of stuff, and make videos on many things I like, but that doesn’t mean everything sticks. We’re into 2023 now so I can take a look back at what apps worked for me in 2022.
