OP for the love all man kind, don’t listen to a single person here telling you to install these silly utility tools that make a Mac run more like Windows. Don’t get Alfred, or Bartender or apps that give you the “Windows” experience of split screens. It’s all nonsense. Your Mac does everything those apps do. You really should take the time and discover what it does instead of instantly installing a lot of BS. Then you’ll see why Apple puts so much time into the Mac and MacOS. You’d be surprised everything it’s capable of.
The Mac comes with a very good office suite but if you need MS Office then get that. It also has a very good photo editing suit but if you need something more get Pixelmator or PS. If you need to do video editing it does include iMovie but if you need more then install Apple’s Final Cut Pro X or Adobe Premiere.
If you want the best adblocker then get WIPR. It’s ~$2 USD and it’s absolutely the most powerful. It can’t get everything but it’s better than the other free ones.
It’s funny because I love the Mac full-screening experience. I love independently being able to 3 finger swipe left / right on any monitor and have multiple displays within displays. I’ve tried to find something similar when I have to use Windows and haven’t succeeded.

For the love all man kind, Alfred and bartender have absolutely nothing to do with “the windows experience”. They’re great apps
I fucking despise windows but Mac full screen/Desktop/split screening still needs an overhaul, it’s super clunky compared to windows.

When people say make Mac like Windows 99.9% of the time they mean
Scrolling on a scroll wheel and trackpad in opposite independent directions
Window Snapping
Both of which are essential features to get if you’re coming from Windows.
