After so many years just using Linux desktops I was shocked how many single purpose GUI applications I need on my MacBook from work.
The one that comes to mind is a GUI with a single button to restore subpixel hinting functionality on, what apple calls, lo-dpi screens. Apple in all their wisdom disabled subpixel hinting a long time ago.
The one I haven't tackled yet, is having only output on my external screen without having to close the lid. Why is this difficult? Am I dumb? I expect there is a GUI somewhere which will expect 10 dollars per year.

- eviks 3y agoIf you're used to scripting these things you can create your own simple guis with something like Keyboard Maestro ($, but not subscription) where a button would just call the script to do what you want But yeah, the OS won't be of much help, it's not designed for these things to be comfortable
