I've used the Surf browser with dmenu integration quite a bit, and the software is written well, but default the key bindings are all over the place. I have to look it up, whenver I'm trying to do something as simple as copy and paste.
Considering that a build environment is needed to customize it, I feel like they'd get more users sticking around if it defaulted to more conventional controls.
Robinhood is probably the best software I regularly use. It's extremely smooth and intuitive for how powerful it is now. The way they present and explain options and allow you to enter complex multi-leg option trades on mobile is super impressive. On top of that it just works really well (these days).
Monarch Money is incredibly smooth and functional considering the complexity. Maybe it benefits from the comparison with the mess that was Mint though, haha.

Dwm and dmenu. Top notch polish, true minimalism

The CAS software on HP calculators is amazingly useful, especially considering the limitations of the hardware it's running on.
I don't know if its polished in the traditional sense, but yt-dlp feels so perfect for what it was designed to do.
It is a well simplified wrapper around the hot mess that is needed to convince YouTube that you're actually using using a web browser.

I don’t think there is any particularly perfect software
Ghostty is exceptionally good at what it was made for
For me, i think it’s notion, it’s well thought.
BBEdit.
NetBSD on plain console.
I find 1Password to be very smooth and intuitive to use (ignoring its sometimes unfortunate iOS integration, which is Apple’s fault).
