I’ve been a long time user of Dash. There is a Linux alternative called Zeal for those that use multiple platforms.
I use Alfred quite a bit as well, though not as an alternative to Spotlight. I use it for automations via workflows instead. Turning on or off VPNs, sending files, converting date times, reading 2FA codes off my Yubikey, etc. I haven’t found a great Linux alternative for this. Ideally I’d have something that lasts me reuse my workflows that I’ve written.
Not mentioned in the article is Better Touch Tool[1]. I’ve had this since the original Intel MBP and it’s been incredible for making the fancy trackpads and touch bars actually useful. I’ve got a Pomodoro timer, Dark Mode toggle, Do Not Disturb toggle (also automated by ControlPlane), and lots of simpler app shortcuts.
I responded to someone else about ControlPlane a bit further down, but I have it automate things like DND when I start a call from my Mac.
