#22* https://tableplus.com/ for database access * https://bear.app/ for notes * Skitch for screenshots and markup * Dash for easy docs * Easy CSV Editor ( https://vdt-labs.com/easy-csv-editor/ ) for just editing a CSV file without loading a whole spreadsheet app. * VSCode, Sublime, zsh, iTerm, Proxmox
Bear.app is close to my ideal app, but since it only works on Apple devices, I have a hard time committing to it.
The built in Apple-made Notes.app is inferior in almost all aspects but there is a web interface I can use when I'm on Linux or Windows.

#25i pay a yearly sub for jetbrains (very good), but i would pay more for a modern version of visual c++ 6.0 - so fast, so simple to use, even back when. visual studio (although impressive) is just too fat for me and, along with jb a bit too slow.

#26If you're using git - git-fork.com is an excellent git client for Osx And Windows
Other good graphical git clients I have used in the past are Sublime Merge https://www.sublimemerge.com/ and SmartGit https://www.syntevo.com/smartgit/.
They are usually not expensive, and I learned git with GUIs.

#27iTerm 2, basic Creative Cloud even though I rarely use it, MDN.
I'm transitioning from Sublime to VSCode but I'll probably pay for future versions of Sublime because I really like it.
I will probably pay for ChatGPT. I don't think it's super useful yet but if it saves me just a few minutes a month that's worth $10 to me easy.

#28I received a Kinesis keyboard in the mail today - maybe not what OP had in mind but my hand issues were to the point of contemplating leaving computer work. Not sure how much it’ll change with the new keyboard - but my response is ergonomics.
Which one did you choose?
advantage 2 quiet refurb. i'm happy so far and already know it's not getting returned

Sublime Text: To this day I have not found any text editor that works better than this. 100% worth the money
