vimac VS AlDente-Charge-Limiter

Probably worth saying there are a handful of alternatives (I've tried most and ShortCat is my favorite): * Wooshy * Vimac * HomeRow * SuperKey * VimMotionApp

If you like vimium, there's an app called Vimac that's like vimium but for macOS. So you can control all kinds of apps with they keyboard like in vimium.

Vimac

It is inspired by Vimium! In fact, when I when 17, I made Vimac (https://vimacapp.com) because I had wrist pain from a semester of using the trackpad to do Figma + Photoshop, and really wished there was Vimium for the entire OS. Few years later now, I've reworked the workflow incorporating the lessons I've learned and called it Homerow.

P.S. I also made Vimac (https://vimacapp.com) a few years back. Homerow is a more polished and performant version of Vimac, taking into account all the things I learned from its predecessor.

I would like to have an equivalent to vimac.

System wide, if you use a Mac check out KindaVim and Homerow or its unmaintained predecessor Vimac

It is definitely a more intuitive app than Vimac

Vimac: for navigating the UI without moving the trackpad

Looks like there's a decent CLI tool for it, but being a Mac guy I'm of course going for the slick GUI app https://apphousekitchen.com. The developer came up with a really clever incentive for free-app users to upgrade to the Pro version: make the icons for the free version unbelievably ugly. (The design of the app itself is excellent)

2. Aldente

"Special care" on OS X is to use Al Dente.app, which limits the charge at 80% so as to not damage the battery.

I use an app called AlDente that allows you to cap your battery's charge https://apphousekitchen.com/

download AlDente and your battery will thank you. If you have it plugged in most of the time limit the charge to 80% and AlDente will stop charging beyond that.

Just a shame keeping the battery at 100% will degrade its health over time. I would love an option to keep it at 50% most of the time, just like my MacBook with AlDente.

It's not possible to set a hard limit in macOS without third party utility like AlDente [1].

I was referring to the built-in "Optimised battery charging" feature. When this is active and has decided it will cap charging at 80%, you get a "charge to full now" option in the battery menu.

I was told to get this app to help maximize battery life as it keep it within 30-80% charge instead of 100%. Would this app help prolong the battery life?
