Some hard to find tips that are a bit old (tested on OS X Lion), but most of them still work:
https://software.clapper.org/cheat-sheets/mac-os-x.html https://software.clapper.org/cheat-sheets/mac-os-x.html
For me, an immediately useful tip was hiding user login for Git user.
I would add the following tips to above article:
# System resource usage
* USE Method: Mac OS X Performance Checklist: http://www.brendangregg.com/USEmethod/use-macosx.html http://www.brendangregg.com/USEmethod/use-macosx.html
# Emacs users
* For Emacs users with their config in version control, I would recommend downloading the latest Emacs.app version 27.1 instead of using Aquamacs, because Aquamacs has a bunch of customizations that do not play so well with original Emacs.

# Printing
* If you have Acrobat or Acrobat Professional installed, add an Adobe PDF printer from System Preferences > Printers and scanners, so you can make better PDF files by printing from any application.
* You can save anything as PDF by choosing "Save as PDF" from the dropdown on the lower left corner on any print dialog.
* Open CUPS web UI by opening the following URL in a web browser:
http://localhost:631/ http://localhost:631/
http://localhost:631/printers/ http://localhost:631/printers/
You may need to enable the web user interface by issuing:
cupsctl WebInterface=yes
Warning! Be sure that you are behind NAT or a firewall so as not to expose the web UI to internet!
