Software I Like

This is a pretty incomplete list of software I think is extremely good. I use all of these pretty regularly, and I think those that are paid are well worth the money. I’ve tried to stay away from social-media style uses and just “nice websites” - these are mostly utility-based tools. The idea is to list pieces of software which have unusually good user experiences, effectiveness, or features you can’t get anywhere else.

1. The Browser Company’s Arc - A modern browser with neat organisation and good aesthetics
2. Last.fm - A site which tracks every song you listen to with summary statistics and a free API
3. Texifier - The best LaTeX editor I’ve ever used, with live typesetting and a customisable layout
4. KeyBR - A website for typing speed practice which is effective at training and improvement
5. Excalidraw - A free whiteboard with many useful features for diagrams and lovely aesthetics
6. Autodesk Fusion 360 - Easy and powerful CAD software for designing 3D models and prints
7. Eszes Bálint’s BDStudio - A powerful GUI editor for block displays in Minecraft
8. MCStacker - An incredibly capable custom command builder for Minecraft commands
9. Cold Turkey Blocker - The most effective website and distraction blocker I’ve used so far
