What I Use
Some software and tools I use regularly:
- Obsidian for notes
- Cursor and NeoVim for coding
- Raycast for launching, quick actions, quick AI chat
- Ghostty for terminal
- 1Password for passwords
- YNAB for budgeting
- Lose It! for counting calories, meal tracking, and intermittent fasting
- Homebrew for macOS packages
- Brave for browsing
- Proxmox for my home servers
See my Homelab page for details about my home servers.
I’ve used Linux, FreeBSD, and macOS on my workstations over the years since 2000, with all sorts of window manager and desktop environment combinations. In the early 2000’s, I was more into desktop “ricing” and used FreeBSD and different Linux distributions.
Most of my jobs have offered MacBooks for workstations for more than a decade, so I’ve mostly been using macOS. My personal workstation was a MacBook Pro running Arch for the last several years, but I recently switched to using an M4 MacBook Air with macOS for personal stuff.
See my old computers page for some nostalgia.
