FLAC is a lossless audio format, which means it was designed to favor audio quality over file size. Since storage capacity is cheap nowadays, many music lovers prefer FLAC over formats like MP3. But FLAC is still fairly uncommon, overall, and not every music player out there supports it. Therefore, if you want to install such a program on your Mac, it makes sense to look for a FLAC player specifically. Although FLAC is niche, it is by no means unpopular; you will have no difficulty finding programs that can play FLAC files. But simply installing whatever you happen to find on the internet is not good enough – should not be good enough – for a discerning music listener. Only high-quality apps will do. With that in mind, we have reviewed several media players to find out which one of them deserves to be called the best FLAC player for Mac.

Graphical interfaces are everywhere, but sometimes you just can’t make do without good old-fashioned console. This is true even for macOS, which is why Apple includes a terminal emulator – simply called Terminal – by default. As much as they dislike their users getting under the hood, sometimes it is simply necessary. But although Apple’s terminal is serviceable, a true power user wants more than simply being able to execute commands. This is where third-party terminal emulators step in. There are plenty of options to choose from; some are ported from Linux, while others are developed specifically for macOS. But which one should you use? In this article, we will attempt to answer this question and determine the best terminal for Mac.

YouTube, as a website, is known to pretty much everyone on this planet. It is the platform to watch videos on – it is hard to compete with its millions of tutorials, educational videos, music clips, cartoons, and other video files. For a while, no-one had an issue with this. The creators loved working with YouTube, and the users loved accessing all video content from one place. But that did not last. Since YouTube has a de-facto monopoly on video content, its developers have eventually grown lazy and detached from reality, introducing many changes that have harmed the website. While the creators often complain about demonetization strikes and easily-abused “copyright claim” system, the users, too, have problems with the platform. One such problem is the excessive amount of ads. Though arguably necessary to pay for the website, many users feel that these ads are too distracting and time-consuming, and resort to solutions such as ad blockers. This article attempts to find the best YouTube ad blocker for Mac – keep reading to find out which one gets awarded the title.
