Mac Mouse Fix: Do the things you do on a trackpad. Without a trackpad
Looks like it's Open Source too (GPL2): https://github.com/archagon/sensible-side-buttons
Hasn't had a commit in 6 years though. :/

I Use My Mouse
On macOS, I use SensibleSideButtons to map my Logitech mouse side buttons to Swipe Right and Swipe Left. This works as a generic Forwards/Back in lots of places: Safari, Firefox, Finder, iTerm2.
Unfortunately the app appears to be abandoned (no Apple Silicon builds), but if there's interest I will resurrect it.

Mac Users: Aside from Abobe, what software and utilities do you find essential?

About to set up my 16" MBP as my main computer! Any suggested applications/tools/settings to make the most out of the general use of the MBP? Mainly, I’ll be editing 4K video for serious usage. This computer is a dream come true! I can finally improve my workflow from an older (2017) Windows desktop
SensibleSideButtons (free) — again if you have a mouse with side buttons this will hook them up to back/forward

Winter setup
Out of the box, the scrolling felt quite off, even with Logitech’s new beta s/w. I found that the smooth scroll would also stop working from time to time which can get quite frustrating. Luckily there’s a bunch of great indie s/w like Mos, SteerMouse, Mac Mouse Fix, and Sensible Side Buttons that path some of the shortcomings.

Who is the MacOS for?
External mice work just fine up to 3 buttons and a scroll wheel. Beyond that you need to either have a mouse with a Mac-specific driver or use SensibleSideButtons (https://sensible-side-buttons.archagon.net/). I strongly recommend Logitech MX Master 3, it works great on macOS, Windows and Linux. The former two have first part support, the latter through Solaar.

Mouse where the side buttons actually work on M1 Macs?

Dynamouse: Mouse driver for big Mac studios
As others have mentioned, there's quite a few options, and I use mos (https://github.com/Caldis/Mos) for no particular reason. It does the same things as any of the alternatives, I just found it first and stuck with it since.

Mac Mouse Fix: Do the things you do on a trackpad. Without a trackpad
It looks like this competes with Mos.app[0]. Honestly, I'm not sure how folks use non-magic mice without this.

An Open Source Mouse and Trackpad Utility for Mac
Not to take away from this app, but I’ve been using Mos (https://mos.caldis.me) for a couple of years now and it’s been just enough to mitigate the faults I had with default mouse settings in macOS.
personally i prefer this one https://github.com/Caldis/Mos

Some Orbit questions (scrolling, bearing noise, button chording)
About smooth scrolling, on Mac I used MOS but nowadays I use LinearMouse. Maybe you can get something similar with KensingtonWorks or other app.

MX Master terribly Issues on Macbook Pro M2
Had the same issue. Disable smooth scrolling in LogiOptions+ in macOS and install MOS.
