How makers stay productive

Love your videos Mike!

I think if I would have to choose one software it would be Notion. Other personal ones:

• Alfred
• LastPass
• Spotify
• Slack
• VS Code
• ViMac
• Vimium (Vim inside Chrome)
• Spark (Email)

For business they are quite a few more. Curious, what are your personal ones?
