Not great timing with UPS about to go on strike. I personally nearly always order online and then set to pick up in store since UPS is an absolute shitshow in my area.

Never heard of Scroll Reverser but it looks like it solves one of my pet peeves of macOS that should just exist natively.

Suspicious Package: A great utility for inspecting the payload of a package, including scripts.

Macs Fan Control: Both a temp monitor and fan control. Especially useful on older Intel Macs.

Amphetamine: Good GUI for caffeinate.

coconutbattery: Monitor your battery health, cycles, etc.

The Unarchiver: Think 7-Zip for macOS.

Jamf Now: Stripped down version of Jamf, MDM for Apple devices. You get 3 devices for free. This is more if you want to dabble in endpoint management/light automation. You will get sales emails.

The problem is AppCleaner is effectively guessing based on file name (and potentially other metadata) what to get rid of, you have to use your brain to check the list of what it is proposing to delete (hence why they show it to you and make you check the additional boxes). Someone who is actively seeking out the app to do something like this is more likely to check, but if it was a default functionality from Apple, many users would just ignore it and delete everything, even if it’s something they’d want to keep. Apple’s ethos of how they view users is also not predisposed to this.

It’s also notable that many things get left behind even after unintsalling apps in Windows. Sometimes the manifest just doesn’t encompass everything an app will spit out during its existence on your device.
