Widget app for Spotify/Apple Music that shows in notification center?
I use Muse Bar to have Spotify on my Touchbar at all times.

Spotify specific touchbar controls in mac
I use Muse Bar and it controls Spotify and Apple Music depending on what you use. It’ll add a button to your Touch Bar that you press to pause the music specifically, and when you press and hold it’ll bring up a scrubber, like, shuffle, etc.

Last Glowing Apple Logo VS (Possibly) Last Touch Bar
Get MuseBar. Makes controlling Spotify/AM playback SO much nicer, you can swipe across the button it adds to skip forward backward or even long press on it and it’ll give you a scrubber, the song name album art, volume control, heart icon to add a song to favorites. It’s honestly my favorite part of having a touchbar and just shows how much more potential there is in a screen than just some F keys

What are some cool touchbar apps/tips someone should know?
Pock, MTMR are the best if you just wanna customize it to your preference. There's also Muse if you want a music player.

My favorite mac apps in 2022
MTMR: open source, let you eat the tasteless, throw away the pity of the TouchBar and a little bit of use, my configuration can be seen in item.json

Is the Touchbar any good apart from its aesthetic value?
I used MTMR to fix some static actions in place which was better, but I'm still much happier with the function key row on the 14"

Apple is ready to admit it was wrong about the future of laptops
Not a replacement for physical buttons but you can use MTMR to personalise what appears on the touchbar. Made a huge difference for me, I didn't use it before.

Touchbar you beauty!
I can also recommend MTMR to modify your touchbar 😊

Leaving the Apple ecosystem behind
Er sorry, you misunderstand me-- I mean customizable by downloading new software, not by turning the itty bitty knobs they give you out of the box. You know, same as linux! (Unless you're one of the cool people who has written their own window manager, most of us just download that shit and tweak it to our liking)
Some apps I like
- Better Touch Tool https://folivora.ai/
- https://www.raycast.com/
- MTMR https://mtmr.app/ (admittedly hate the touchbar but hey at least i can tweak it)
- iTerm is def the best terminal app experience
- the builtin trackpad is by far the best of any OS (esp boosted by BTT), but for plugged in mice i use https://plentycom.jp/en/steermouse/
I guess that's all of them actually, don't use much more than that.
