Software I Love

🏆 Without this, my life would pretty much fall apart.

🏆 The best, most beautiful bookmark manager ever.

🏆 Demolishes every other password manager. There's no competition. Bitwarden does it all and then some. Integrates with SimpleLogin too.

🏆 The most beautiful 2FA app I've seen yet.

A very minimal and nice little 2FA extension.

🏆 I can have multiple accounts on a website and have all the emails go to one inbox. Also adds a nice layer of privacy.

Has shaved 30 minutes off of drives to appointments before. Traffic and hazard updates are just unbeatable.

🏆 The Windows digital artist's best friend. Has a ridiculous amount of tools, and often goes on sale. Subscription-only on iOS and Android, and Windows and Mac will soon be subscription-only as well.

The best open-source digital art app there is, period. Updates can be pretty slow, but it still feels like a commercial drawing app.

🏆 My DAW of choice. Also contains Edison, which is one of the greatest audio editors of all time. Very animated and intuitive interface. One time payment with updates for life.

Unfortunately, the gold standard of image editing tools. Extremely powerful, but I don't recommend giving Adobe money.

Very similar to Photoshop, but is a one-time payment and a TINY fraction of the price. Development is very very active.

Having all of my photos stored in the cloud is outstanding, and Google's AI features are so good with image editing and object recognition, that it can be kinda scary.

🏆 The best email client for Android, period. It doesn't actually physically hurt to read and write emails from my phone now.

🏆 If I'm getting around a city or taking public transportation, I always use Citymapper. If you're in the US and used to driving, this takes out all the difficulty of transit. App is pretty much useless if you don't get the subscription, unfortunately.

A very feature-packed Telegram client for Android. Updates are slow, but it's a tradeoff made up for by the amount of features the app crams in.

🏆 The best way to browse Reddit I've come across so far. Just an absolutely gorgeous app.

🏆 If you have a rooted Android device, and want to back up, then get this. I really wish something like this didn't require rooting, as this is such a powerful and intuitive way to back up things on an Android.

Lets you make your Android 12+ device a little more pretty with Material You customization.

Probably the easiest way to install APK bundles and APKs as root on Android. Interface could use a little more polish.

🏆 An actually good storage cleaner for Android.

Feature-rich Android file manager.

🏆 Can be faster than transferring files over USB sometimes.

🏆 The most informative weather app in existence.

My video player of choice on Android.

🏆 I've tried a dozen ebook readers on Android, none of them match Moon+

🏆 My current favorite weather app for Android (RIP Weather Timeline). Super convenient, and has nice widgets and permanent notification for quick access.

🏆 Required if you don't want to go blind from browsing the web at night.

🏆 This dude put so much effort into this masterpiece of a last.fm scrobbler. Nothing else on Android even comes close.

An essential if you want to use userscripts in your browser.

🏆 Sometimes I don't even know how this piece of software is free. This thing is in the ranks with Blender and Krita in terms of commercial-grade open source software

Skips adf.ly links and other "url shorteners"

🏆 You can finally read that one news article.

🏆 The best game organizer and launcher there is. Lots and lots of customization and settings.

A way better way to check my money than my bank's app.

Does what is says on the tin. Undos YouTube's very dumb decision of removing dislikes.

🏆 An insanely flexible note app.

Whenever I want to handwrite notes on my tablet, I use this.

🏆 Youtube Vanced, except now it's fully legal because all this does is patch your existing YouTube APK. Blocks ads, comes with SponsorBlock, and Return Youtube Dislike.

My web browser of choice.

Google Drive

🏆 The most powerful and comprehensive ad blocker there is.

Skips sponsor segments in YouTube videos using the power of the community.

🏆 My email client of choice on Windows, but sadly pricing is really stupid.

🏆 Windows file explorer on super steroids. Once you take advantage of XYplorer's features, you never want to go back. Stupid fast and feature packed.

The most popular download manager there on Windows, and for good reason.

🏆 I've tried many image viewers and organizers, and none of them come close to XnView MP.

🏆 My favorite media player on Windows. Definitely beats VLC.

🏆 Monitor your FPS and hardware information while in a game.

🏆 Task Manager on super steroids.
