Top for me have to be the combo of Aniyomi and WVC.

Aniyomi is a Tachiyomi fork that adds anime extensions. Tachi is great as is, but after Anyme shut down, I needed something to watch and track anime with MAL integration. Plus if you read manga, I'd assume you watch anime too. App and extensions receive regular updates.

WVC aka Web Video Caster. Chromecast any video. I have watched soooooo much stuff on my TV through this. Great controls and features, frequent updates, and they're on Reddit to talk to directly if you have issues or feature requests. Great team of people and wonderful app. First premium app I bought.

Bring! is a close third. Works on Android and iOS so me and SO can both share a shopping list every since Google screwed theirs up. Was great when Google Assistant was linked to it, but Google broke that too. Still a great app though. We get notifications when the other person adds an item in case one of us is running errands already.

Firefox Focus

On Windows, my absolutely vital stuff on the gaming rig are:

• Discord
• Firefox
• Keepass - KeepassXC in my case, but that's because I also use it on other OSes and well, same UI; otherwise on Windows itself I'd recommend the actual Keepass.
• MPC-HC, a media player that has a tiny install size and easily outperforms VLC without even breaking a sweat
• Playnite, a multi-library game launcher.

Musicolet my local music player. It has the fondamental feature of switching between playlists without losing the position of the last played tracks. A feature that no othercplayer has

• Markor - amazing android text editor.
• Symfonium - music player that I can use with my selfhosted navidrome.
• Vivino - wine rating app.
• Deedum - gemini browser.
• Fluffychat - matrix chat app.

Audiobook Shelf - self hosted Audiobook server with a really excellent UI and very reliable

Tody - a habit tracking app specifically built around house chores, with functionality for multiple family members sharing the load

Sync for Lemmy - self explanatory

Tusky - also self explanatory

Jellyfin, nextcloud, Conversations for Android paired with Prosody, Joplin, auxio, and homeassistant.

Apple Music, YouTube, and my online banking app.

I use Slidepad on my Mac every day. I have it mapped to a button in my mouse. It’s an embedded browser thing for web apps. But you can also put files there like pdfs and stuff which is handy when when you need to review something and don’t want another window always on your screen.
