I'm forced to use that shit at work.
For window management "Rectangle" helps.
For a better tabbing behaviour I use "AltTab".
For setting the volume of a sound device over HDMI I can recommend "MonitorControl".
Then edit the keymap to be less stupid with Ukelele, use ForkLift instead of Finder, qView instead of Preview for photos, and of course Firefox instead of Safari, and things start getting tolerable.
I'm unfortunately a slave to the three finger swipe (I think if that worked as well on Linux I would swap, tried a few third party things on Mint but it's not as good)
What's forklift bring to the table?
Mainly it doesn't delete network locations from my favourites if they happen to be unreachable. 😅
It was hell, I started a new job with a confusing filing system used by the team, where hundreds of locations feel like they are important, and the damn Finder on the damn macOS kept deleting the favourites. First I worked around it with local symlinks and favouriting those, but it was just way less handy.
I also liked being able to rebind "Move to Trash" to the delete key, and "Delete" to shift+delete.
But I think most people like ForkLift for the dual pane view.
