I am using my machine for security research, pentesting (not so much these days), sw development - more like scrips and tiny apps/automations. I also use the machine for some video edits - mostly board sports.
After using mac for so long, I am wondering - is there some killer app I am missing?
I use so far (except mail, calendar, office and other “defaults”): - iterm2 - pimped zsh - sublime text - neovim - UTM - little snitch - wireguard - monitor control - synergy (to connect to corporate mac) - amphetamine
In Safari I have: - wipr - super agent - hush - vinegar - amplosion
Dear hackers, is there killer app you use? What can’t you live without? Thanks!

The BEST feature it has is a built in password manager. Need a password for sudo, no problem option+command+f brings up a small window here you can add as many passwords as you like and name them and save them. Double click the password and it puts in the command line for you, it even warns you if it detects that you are not actually at a password prompt. This great if you have passwords for postgres, redis, sudo access, etc. etc.
