Software I use

Sublime Text is my favorite text editor. I've used it since ST2, 3, and now into 4. It is easily the most performant editor I've used, opening gigabyte-sized files with ease. It's find and replace function is amazing.
Soulver but not the iCloud Sync part. Soulver is the only way I've stuck to a monthly or annual budget.
Due is my reminders app of choice for “persistent, naggy reminders.” For things that absolutely must be completed, Due includes a feature where it will constantly send notifications reminding you of the reminder until the system throttles it. For example, if you need to take some medicine at 9pm, you can set it to notify you at 9pm every day, and thereafter, every 5 minutes until completed.
mpv is my favorite media player on most systems. On iOS, I use nPlayer, and on Apple TV, I use infuse.
Mimestream is my favorite email client.
Clean email is my favorite email cleaning service. Specifically, compared to Sanebox, I use it for the email screening and auto-clean features.
Anki is my favorite flash card app, but it's really the only SRS app I use.
Amphetamine is the app I use to keep my Mac awake.
Alfred is what I use for a launcher on Mac.
Cleanshot X is my screenshot / screen recording tool of choice.
OmniFocus is my task management app of choice, but it is not perfect and I have many problems with it.
- Randomly restarts on macOS sometimes (for no apparent reason) reopening all windows.
- Generally sluggish after SwiftUI rewrite.
- Forecast widget on iOS doesn't filter by focus.
- “Filter by device focus” randomly breaks.
- No natural language input.
- iOS app is a sluggish pile of junk.
- Sluggish
- Sluggish
- Incomplete time management system
- Can't hide calendar events based on focus mode in forecast view
- Can't show date added row or sort anything by date added in task views
- Tags aren't colorful
- Quick entry just sucks for keyboard navigation
- Omni Automation scripts take 10 decades to run when they iterate over all tasks (this should not be hard, computers are fast).
- Signature feature: defer dates. Only app that does defer dates even remotely correctly.
RhythMap is my favorite store locator for rhythm games in Japan.
Tot is my favorite cross-device scratch pad for text.
Shadowrocket is my favorite VPN/proxy app.
Naver Papago is my favorite translation service, but the Papago app is the best by far for what I need. Specifically, it allows you to copy kanji from images so you can then paste that into other things like notes or dictionaries. It's far better than Apple's image-to-text recognition. It is also the best translation tool for Korean and pretty good for Japanese/Chinese.
The ALL.net games locator service is also really useful.
NERV delivers disaster early warning and prevention notifications in Japan. Japan only service. Free!
RadarScope is amazing in the US as a weather radar.
ALL.net shop radar.
Opener opens links in different apps on iOS.
Fantastical appears on a lot of lists and I do use it, but I'm not sure I really make use of it.
Flighty is my favorite flight journal app.
macOS, lol
JQuake is my default earthquake app.
Circle.ms (more specifically the web catalog function) is my default way to navigate events like コミケ etc.
