For me, that would be Secure CRT. I have yet to find a terminal emulator that matches its feature set. If you regularly manage hundreds of machines using various connection protocols (serial and ssh mostly in my case) It’s worth the $$$, and so far there hasn’t been any subscription nonsense. I liked using it at work so much I forked over the dough to have it at home.

None of the free alternatives do everything I need.

I’ll also mention a few iOS apps. One is Sun Surveyor. It’s an AR app that shows you the position of the sun, moon, and galactic center at any given time. The other would have to be Radarscope. It’s a weather radar app, but it’s a really good weather radar app.

EDIT:

This one’s debatable, but I use it all the time. Plasticity is 3D modelling software that attempts to bridge the gap between practical CAD programs and software meant for 3D artists like Blender. It’s not cheap considering Blender is free, but it’s buy once use forever, and at (I think) $150 it’s within reach of an individual hobbyist who knows what they want and is willing to pay for it.

    +1 for Alibre.

    With v29 (release probably in march) they are changing the UI framework, the last thing preventing it on any other OSs. In the latest live stream on YouTube they hinted that they would look into a Linux port if there is enough interest. 3 of 4 hosts in the stream gave a thumbs up for Linux, so there is hope.

    Edit: Link to the stream https://youtu.be/uDheVp1OH4Y?t=5184

    Compared to other CAD its cheap as hell. Especially if you don’t need the all features, you can get Atom3D for less than 300€. For everyone interested: wait for promotions, the price is heavily discounted a few times per year.
