Of the three, ditto easily takes no. 1 spot. Must’ve saved me weeks of juggling windows and trying to remember where stuff was at this point. It’s a superpower, a true game changer if I ever saw one.

Maccy on macOS is about half as good which is still an absolute unit of a tool. Couldn’t use a Mac without it.

Yep, funny enough I have a Macbook for work (company laptop) and I also stumbled upon Maccy. You're right in that it's not Ditto but it's quite good and I'm overall happy using it.

Right, foobar2000 is great isn't it?

To add to that, for me mplayer was clutch for a long time, nowadays I opt for VLC though.

mv2player was a really good option for a period of time, it's a shame it just disappeared, not even it's source code can be found.

That sounds bad. Is it on any old shareware sites ?

it can be found here, and a few other places as well, but unfortunately the source code was never shared. Though it was such an amazing, blazing fast and bloatfree app, such a shame the code was never shared, and now it seems lost, unless the author is around somewhere?
