For "power-users" who use *both* Windows and Mac/macbooks, do you find it easy and as efficient to switch between the two on a daily basis? Or should I dedicate myself to ONE OS?
Installed https://github.com/dmarcotte/easy-move-resize on my mac, and https://stefansundin.github.io/altdrag/ on my PC. Make moving and resizing windows easier, and I hate maximizing/full-screening windows, as I find it's a huge waste of screen space.

From macOS to Arch Linux
only use Homebrew for ‘Casks’ (GUI .apps)— `brew cask` subcommand
Nix or pkgsrc for reliable management of CLI tools (both, if you want to try Nix but want an escape hatch)
don't forget to install GNU coreutils, grep, find, and bash. (BSD coreutils are weird and anemic if you're used to GNU. macOS bash is ancient, etc.)
disable cursor acceleration (barely works, but it's the only thing that works): https://plentycom.jp/en/cursorsense/index.html
the only mature terminal emulator on the platform that performs okay (provided you enable GPU acceleration): https://iterm2.com/
recover basic key remapping functionality: https://karabiner-elements.pqrs.org/
recover basic audio controls like per-app volume mixing: https://github.com/kyleneideck/BackgroundMusic
recover FUSE support: https://osxfuse.github.io/
recover configurability for a whole host of missing functionality, like global keyboard shortcuts, through automation (Lua scripting): https://www.hammerspoon.org/
recover clipboard management: https://hluk.github.io/CopyQ/
if you don't use some hack to get window tiling, you might also want to...
recover basic window management functionality: https://github.com/rxhanson/Rectangle
recover modifier key window drag: https://github.com/dmarcotte/easy-move-resize
good luck.

Homebrew vs Appstore
Yes that works for CLI apps. But some small gui apps provide no updater, are not available in the app store but only provide a brew cask (e.g. https://github.com/dmarcotte/easy-move-resize).

Show HN: NotesOllama – I added local LLM support to Apple Notes (through Ollama)
Another option for hacking something like this together could be HammerSpoon. I’ve spent some time with it, but haven’t tried integrating with Apple Notes, I mostly did stuff at the file system level to keep it easy.

getting current desktop to show on lockscreen? (MacOS Ventura)
Assuming no one has a cut-and-dried solution that just works, would something like this be possible with say, AppleScript or another scripting tool like Hammerspoon? I've not used either of these tools before, but would be open to seeking out a scripting solution on my own if it's viable. Or am I going to run into insurmountable security restrictions?
