You Need These 30 Apps - PART 1

[@maciejziehlke4479]

26:50 KZbin videos have 2x speed by default. Just click and hold on the video.

[@wesleycoder]

I was wondering who will tell them about this and what would be their reaction lol

[@ahrbil]

you can also hold Spacebar

[@WesBos]

Just noticed this after recording - seems like almost all platforms are adding this

[@samifouad]

Came to add this same comment.. I use this all the time 😄

[@AdityaRaj-lj5wf]

Who'll keep holding 🧑‍🍼

[@ElmarBeckmann]

KZbin actually has the 2x speed when you click and hold the video....

[@ayitinya]

I actually left spotify to come find this comment

[@AliceAlexandra-d5t]

You can also hold down the spacebar.

[@cotyhamilton]

$27 color picker is crazy 😂

[@WesBos]

$27 for a year 😆

[@javajoint]

@@WesBos Scott! Wes! Sip is in Setapp, along with a ton of other apps. Am surprised you did not mention Setapp in part 1

[@WesBos]

@@bcassol You obvi didnt watch it - I was outraged!

[@phoneywheeze]

Microsoft powertoys has this built in, also OCR and a lot of nice features

[@avi12]

2:45 The Windows equivalent is TreeSize (which has TreeSize Free)

[@ayitinya]

or wiztree

[@bcassol]

wiztree is great. Reads from NTFS tree to its uber fast (and free).

[@glatocha]

TreeSize super good, and you can have it portable also

[@RexGalilae]

WinDirStat is the OG. I still use it on my Gaming PC

[@zero11010]

This was hard to watch. Tried while walking my dog. It sounded like 10 solid minutes of “I can’t live without these 4 separate apps I use that all do the same thing to navigate my file system with a GUI” I’m on board with one. But, multiple?

[@wiviannegrapenholt9324]

26:55 isn’t that already a thing? At least on mobile devices

[@AlbertCloete]

A CLI based disk analyser (like DaisyDisk) that works on Linux and probably Mac is ncdu.

[@RobskyDev]

Native Polish here 😁 Scott's pronunciation is pretty good so 👏 word "czkawka" (fonetically chcavka) translates to "hicup" 😅

[@qaispalekar]

That 27:00 is available on KZbin mobile app

[@sridharkatta3461]

I think it would be interested to see wes & scot disect a website tech stack which is similar to what they did for wild chips in this episode & recreate them with their own tech stack.

[@simonswiss]

Are y'all "live art directing" the video layout while recording with scenes, or is this raw Riverside footage edited in post? Great stuff by the way!

[@nils42]

Is there a way to share the automator script? ^^

[@wizardfix]

Hey, to find text within some file somewhere you can use `grep -r "Text to find" "/file_path"`. Add the -i flag to make it case insensitive and/or -l to only show the file names with matches.

[@techfixer1543]

Scott/Wes...what's your take on "Diskify"? It's for the Win-OS, and is (so it appears) to be the equivalent of "DaisyDisk" for Mac's. Thanks fellas!

[@JheeeBz]

10:00 ripgrep by BurntSushi searches inside files.

[@OptiMind2816]

Is there a free background removal app for mac

[@syntaxfm]

Right click on an image> quick actions > remove background. No app needed. 😄

[@zero11010]

Backblaze - Just curious. It sounds like the use case for this is files you have that aren’t backed up by any major version control like GitHub. I’ve only been doing this for about 5 years or so. I’ve just never encountered a situation where I needed something that wasn’t a git pull away in a situation like this. Can anyone speak to it?

[@zero11010]

I guess these guys do deal with a lot of video and audio files. Maybe while working on content those can be corrupted … ?

[@syntaxfm]

Part of it is the media records. But also it’s just old to have offsite backup of your entire files system.

[@abhinav.sharma]

Is there a reason why Wes uses Microsoft Edge for inspecting the site?

[@iamkevinricher]

(Im)patiently waiting for part 2 👀

[@hashir]

Raycast already has a great color picker?

[@simonadouglas]

Overkill FTW! What about batch file renamer that uses GREP, as an alternative to A Better Finder Rename?

[@monman42]

Love diving into the chip website bro that's peak.

[@hashir]

There are some issues with Bartender. Mac OS no longer allows to install it because of some security signing issues.

[@JacquesvanWyk]

I found by mistake that KZbin does have 2x if you click and hold on video I use it all the time

[@seniorbrusko]

Severance is the bomb!

[@vsdev1096]

Oh yeah, we definetely NEED these apps. I have no idea how I lived before this revelation.

[@oldboy1904]

lol

[@loquek]

Can't say I made it far into this episode xD

[@brian2k1]

Marta is my favorite but it went dormant for 3 years! Glad it is back on track and being improved.

[@stashladki2594]

Funny how Sketch feels a lot less sketch than most apps out there 👽

[@AravindBalla]

For the hiec and webps, I use clop which does what wes' script does and also compresses it losslessly.

[@avasat01]

I am here to see how crazy it is going to be....30 and then what ?

[@Dedseq]

Apps fixing macos holes 😂 you read my mind

[@MrRapic]

@wes If you are out of space, please delete all your node_modules :P

[@0xClaude]

or use pnpm

[@MichaelRichins]

I use Pika instead of Sip

[@tedsomething]

As an Mac app developer, when I hear someone saying "5$ a year is a bit much" it boils my blood, knowing how much really goes into making a Mac app.

[@syntaxfm]

Not discounting the effort and value of time to make an app, but the subscription itself. I’d much rather be charged a larger one time fee for an app that doesn’t have server upkeep than a smaller monthly rate.

[@ayitinya]

I guess it takes 0 effort to develop for other platforms

[@tedsomething]

@@syntaxfm I hear this "server upkeep", but I feel like that is a really bad take. For most apps, servers are dirt cheap. No one complains about server costs. It is "ramen profitability" for a reason (so food and rent). You still have to drop 100$ on Apple every year, so same as a cheap VPS for a year. Mac App Store isn't getting nearly the same traffic as say iOS App Store, so all marketing is on you (same as web), but Apple takes a big chunk of your revenue anyway. Building on Mac is another world of pain, in terms of weird bugs (when new macOS rolls out no one is happy), bad/limited SDK support, terrible ecosystem. In the end, most devs I know do Mac apps for hobby/fun (thus also open source), it makes no financial sense to do it. It is a lot easier/better to just do a web app, so think of it as Patreon maybe. 😄

[@SpeakChinglish]

The problem isn't one app costing $5 a year (most of the time it is far more), it is everything little thing wants to charge a subscription. Before you know it, it's hundreds a month.
