Images software?

Hi, does anyone know of any image editing software that lets me change the resolution of multiple images in a batch? The resolution should be freely scalable, meaning it shouldn't be tied to the image's width and height.

four apps where i didn't even check if there was a free alternative

This is not an affiliated post. Genuinely curious if others feel the same way.

Rectangle Pro ($9.99 one-time): window management with app layouts and cursor gestures. It replaced everything I tried before it.

QSpace Pro (\~$14/17): Finder replacement with multi-pane views, cloud connections, and archive browsing. I stopped opening Finder almost entirely.

Typora ($14.99 one-time): writes and renders in the same view. No modes, no toggling. Just writes.

CleanShot X ($29 one-time): It took over my entire screenshot workflow. Scrolling capture and OCR alone made it worth it.

What’s actually on your paid apps list?

Thoughts on r/MacApps Negativity

There is a repeated pattern of bad manners on this sub - unfounded accusations.

1) Post a positive take an on app - get accused of shilling
2) Post a new app - get accused of vibe coding
3) Write a comprehensive and detailed post - get accused of using AI generated content

I'd like there to be less of that and more good manners and respect.

Why do people start throwing accusations around when someone posts a positive take on an app? This is a sub for exposing and discussing Mac software. I find it personally offensive when anyone accuses me of "shilling" or being "affiliated with the developer" based on absolutely nothing more than my posting something non-critical. There's never any proof because it's an imaginary belief from someone's fever-dream, not a reality based conclusion. Also, the same doesn't hold true in reverse. When someone posts a critical take, seldom is anyone there there to accuse them of being affiliated with the competitor. There is enough negativity in the world. Can't people have space free from that to talk about things they enjoy.

Based on interaction with dozens of devs, it's a rarity these days for there to be absolutely no use of some type of AI in the process of creating and developing new apps. I don't like it when someone posts a derivative, poorly supported, never upgraded v1.0 and asks for a subscription any more than you do, but no one is forcing me to download or pay for anything. There are some pretty cool and original apps that have been created with the help of AI and it's reductive and kind of lame to assign an automatic negative connotation to it.

When it comes to AI generated content, I appreciate honesty, but if the information is valid, why does it matter where it comes from? I don't think many people have an appreciation for just how International the community is here and I see non-English speakers who aren't doing anything more than trying to effectively communicate get insulted on the regular because they use AI. I write a lot and since I'm just one old guy with a laptop, I don't have a copy editor in the next room to do spelling and grammar checks, so I use software to do it. If that software puts an em dash in what I've written, some amateur detectives think they've uncovered a conspiracy. Give it a rest.
