The preferred code editor, with an excellent plugin ecosystem, makes it impossible for me to leave in the short term.

Things

To-do list

Setapp

A subscription-based app store where you only need to pay a regular fee and can freely use the software inside. When I have a need for a certain type of software, I come here first to see if there is any software that meets the criteria.

1Password

My favorite password management tool, it is definitely in the top tier in terms of UI, interaction, security, and customer service.

Use Slack to follow Notion Ambassador messages

Bear

Bear is an excellent native note-taking tool, but I only use it when editing Markdown documents.

It may be the best and most beautiful calendar tool, now called Notion Calendar

Reeder Classic

Notion

I have been using Notion since 2018. It is the final destination for the vast majority of my data and my second brain. In addition, I can use Notion as a datasource for personal projects.

Craft

Craft has very nice designs, I rarely use it for real, but I often open it up to play around a bit.

WeChat

It has many problems and has been criticized countless times. In the final analysis, it is because it has been forced to bear too many scenarios that it should not have to bear.

Apple Music

That’s my goto music streaming app, I love Apple Music Radio.

Raindrop.io

A veteran cross-platform bookmark tool with a beautiful interface and API support. I have completely replaced the built-in bookmark management tools in various browsers with it.

ChatGPT

The AI chatbot, known to everyone, is indispensable every day.

Raycast

Although every time I reinstall macOS, I install it immediately as a replacement for Spotlight, the biggest issue right now is that it cannot search files directly by default. Extra steps are needed to achieve this.

Shazam

After Apple acquired it, Shazam was built into almost all of its own platforms. I use it to quickly listen to and identify songs, and save them in my Apple Music library.

This is the best design tool of this era. Many of my posters and images are made with it, and now Figma Slides has been added, so it can also be used for making presentations.
