Ask HN: What are some well-designed, but less well-known native Mac apps?

I would list all of Panic’s apps if the question did not specifically exclude well-known apps. They are hands down the best at delivering just beautiful software.

I use Reeder a lot (both on macOS and iOS), and love its beautiful simplicity!

I recently started using Paw and am in love with it with its design and features! There are so many well-thought features, I wasn't even aware I nedeed.

As a long time user of Folx GO, I recently discovered CloudMounter from the same developer that allows you to mount cloud services as a local drive. I enjoy using both of them, and would definitely recommend!

Is CloudMounter actually reliable? Decent speeds, connection doesn't randomly drop, etc?

I've tried both Transmit Disk and Mountain Duck, and I've been disappointed. Transmit Disk works but is very slow compared to using the client directly. Mountain Duck causes all sorts of odd things to happen—files disappearing, files that appear to have been moved aren't moved on the server, etc.

From my experience so far, yes it's reliable.

I'm using CloudMounter to mount an OwnCloud instance in our company network using WebDAV. It was able to properly pause and resume syncing multiple large files, several times.
