    Fairy might work OK in MAC, but its FOSS alternative for windows https://github.com/zumoshi/BrowserSelect does not work within the browser. It more works like default browser, letting you choose in which browser to open the links AND default for certain domains.

    I use Wallpaper Engine with https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2616165368. Rainmeter with Simplistic Clock and Lano-Visualizer (disabled because it really used a lot of GPU recently?). And I use my own app https://github.com/ad2017gd/RainbowTaskbar for the taskbar.
