Unix legend Ken Thompson announces he's switching From macOS To Raspberry Linux
I don't know the exact issues but might be related to the issues why I left Apple : I was developing a very successful little tool for MacOS ( https://github.com/milgra/macmediakeyforwarder ) which listened for keypresses. From 2016 to 2019 it became harder and harder to install it because apple added more and more restrictions to apps like this. By 2019, you had to enable the application explicitly to listen for events at least in three places deep down in the system preferences, click accept in various popups and if you stuck somewhere then nobody could tell why it wasn't working. So I had a very expensive laptop and the OS didn't let me use it freely. So I just switched to freebsd and linux, I don't have fancy productivity apps like photoshop and final cut but with open source tools and with my own desktop applications I created the best looking/most usable desktop experience MacOS will never have.

Discussion Thread
I like this app for fixing it. https://github.com/milgra/macmediakeyforwarder
- Is there an app to explicitly set, which app uses the play pause buttons on the keyboard?
-
Lock keyboard media keys to Apple Music, is there an app for this?
Here you go, I'm on an M1 MacBook Air 2020 and this works perfectly for me. It's called "Mac Media Key Forwarder"
-
Recommendation for macOS app that will increase the experience on macOS ?
Media Key Forwarder: lets you pause iTunes/Apple Music/Spotify when you hit the pause button. Apple, for unknown insane reasons, changed the pause button to pause front-loaded media instead of background music when I actually want to pause background music because I now want to watch something.

Is there a replacement for Mac Media Key Forwarder or BeardedSpice to properly control Apple Music audio from the Keyboard Media Keys?
There needs to be a way to hard-lock F8 to only operate Apple Music. High Sierra Media Key Enabler, later Mac Media Key Forwarder, used to do this. The GitHub suggest using Bearded Spice. I had been using that last year but it seems it's no longer working and the last update was in 2017.

I feel attacked
I use MacMediaKeyForwarder (which is discontinued but works well) for sending media key presses from my Logitech Keyboard to Spotify. Alfred (free version) is a better Spotlight. For finding large files and cleaning up my disk I use GrandPerspective.

Lesser Known App Recommendations
This is quite obscure, but macmediakeyforwarder is pretty essential for me. Since High Sierra I think, macOS has made it so the media key plays/pauses the last audio source you were using - including web media such as YouTube. I only ever want it to control Spotify, which is what this app does. I haven’t looked at the GitHub pages in ages and just noticed it’s no longer maintained, and the developer suggests using beardedspice as an alternative.
