Got a Macbook, help me find good apps and navigate the system

Thanks this works keeping the laptop awake when the lid is closed on battery power. Apple keeps dumbing down MacOS. Pretty sure next year we'll need to install a third party app just to get a desktop GUI jeez.

Keeps? You make it sound like Apple requiring external power during clamshell mode is a new thing, it's not.

Amphetamine kept giving me an errors upon login. Grabbed https://apps.apple.com/us/app/sleep-control-centre/id946798523?mt=12 with a discount code and that works.
