InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
Nothing against the default shell (zsh), but when I started using it I immediately noticed the lack of syntax highlighting. My brother recommended using fish, and I haven’t looked back. It’s very pretty and functional :)
I recommend installing homebrew so you can install/update applications from the command line.
MacGesture for mouses as well—pretty convenient for browsing the web, for instance; you can set gestures for going forward/backward, closing a tab, opening a tab, etc.
If you wanna get fancy with the menu bar, stats is a cool piece of software.
If your menu bar is a little cluttered, Dozer is a nifty little tool to clean it up.
Rectangle for snapping windows and resizing them with hotkeys. Very convenient and it's free to boot.
I can't remember any more off the top of my head, but this list has a bunch of links to some neat software for macOS.
For media players, Iina is probably the best for macOS. It has a ton of functionality and a beautiful UI.
