Softwares, teyl tsvey
A while ago, I wrote a blog post called Softwares, where I laid out my basic workflows for a lot of different applications and why I liked them. I figured I’d revisit that topic now, more than three years later.
Sadly, looking over that post, it seems like very few of the apps mentioned there have any staying power. Most of them might remain on my hard drive, and I might keep an eye out for updates, but many of them have nevertheless been superseded. One thing that remains true is that I do use applications for these; Jesse Wolf commented on my last one that he uses a web browser for almost all this stuff, but I still do vastly prefer the OS integration, the responsive, native UI, and the deep functionality of a proper Cocoa (in most cases) app to the convenience and universality of a web app. The cloud, however, has definitely made a big appearance in my life since that post was written.
