If you are interested, take a look, it might be exactly what you need!

For Mac users, how many are still using the native Finder to manage files? Although it can meet basic needs, there are still some drawbacks, such as lack of support for multi-view, inconvenient address bar editing, and read-only when connecting to servers.
I highly recommend an extremely user-friendly single-window multi-view file manager—QSpace! It not only can connect to cloud servers, but also has practical custom features like right-click enhancements and file staging, which can definitely make your file management easier.
One window, 12 layouts, flexible switching
Drag and drop files between different folders in one window, simple, efficient, and intuitive! Supports saving workspaces, instantly returning to work status. No need to reopen so many folders every time.
Easily access any path
Interactive address bar for quickly expanding folders at various levels. Manually enter addresses, with auto-completion support.
One-click open terminal & editor
Quickly switch to the terminal to access the current path, supporting Terminal, iTerm, Hyper, Tabby, kitty, Warp, WezTerm (requires QSpace Professional Edition).
Server connection
QSpace currently supports FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, Dropbox, OneDrive, GoogleDrive, SMB, NFS, AFP, Amazon S3, Alibaba Cloud OSS, Huawei Cloud OBS, Tencent Cloud COS, JD Cloud OSS, Qiniu KODO, UpYun Storage, etc. After mounting, the operation experience is similar to local files, allowing easy dragging and moving files between "local" and "remote," and between different "remote" locations.

Recently, xiaoz has been looking for software on macOS to replace Faststone. After trying nearly 10 screenshot tools, I finally chose CleanShot X, confirming that it is the screenshot and editing tool I want. CleanShot X's edge drag-and-drop cropping, proportional image scaling, and numbered annotations are really convenient!
Drag-and-drop cropping
When editing images with CleanShot X, you can drag the edges of the image for free cropping, a feature that most screenshot software seems to lack.
Proportional image scaling
CleanShot X supports scaling images by pixel ratio or percentage, keeping the original aspect ratio of the image.
Numbered annotations
After taking a screenshot, CleanShot X can add numbered annotations. Although most screenshot software supports this feature, combining these three functions is relatively rare.
In addition to basic screenshot + editing, CleanShot X also supports scrolling screenshots, GIF screenshots, video recording, and other functions. Interested friends can install and try it out.

MacBooks often need to be plugged in for use, and it's more beneficial for lithium-ion batteries to maintain around 80% charge. Most of the time, if the computer is used plugged in for a long time, keeping the battery at full charge without being used for a long time will significantly shorten the battery's lifespan. AlDente Pro is a well-known MacBook battery management software that controls the upper limit of charging and battery status, keeping the battery at around 80% health even when connected to power.
