I haven't seen anyone mention nutritional yeast yet, but that's become my go-to seasoning for almost everything; popcorn, pizza, scrambled eggs, bread, ramen, soft pretzels, and of course on fries. So damn good!
(Yes, I realize the name "nutritional yeast" sounds vaguely unpleasant and unappetizing, but I promise it's incredible if you like savory flavors, and it can also be used as a cheese powder substitute in vegan recipes.)
Gravy or curry sauce
Chili and cheese
Seasoning salt

If it's just fries, then nothing other than salt.

I used to work at a sports bar where we made our own burgers and all by hand. Pretty damn good if you ask me.
We made our own Nashville hot sauce that was really fucking good on our fries. I couldn't stop eating them, even if my mouth started burning. Then I started mixing the Nashville with a bit of ketchup...
I got so unhealthy there.
Chicken salt
Tarter sauce or ranch dressing.
Hot sauce
Ranch dressing, or a mix of half ranch dressing and half ketchup I call "krantchup". Specifically Marie's ranch mixed with Primitive Kitchen ketchup is so good on fries.
Whenever I got to my favorite falafel/kebab place, I order a side of tahini sauce. I mix a bunch of ketchup in there and dip my fries in it.

Everything that normally goes on street corn.
hong kong mcdonald's is currently serving shaker fries, where you can purchase a packet of seasoning powder along with your fries and shake it all together in a bag.
anyway, my all time favourite (so far) is mcdonald's honey bbq seasoning; fucking delicious. their sakura shrimp seasoning is pretty good too.
i got frozen fries that i heat up in the air fryer occasionally whenever i get a craving; tried some taiwanese popcorn chicken seasoning (i bought a jar of it from a taiwanese noodle restaurant) on it and it's really good.
Garam Masala!

Freddy's fry sauce, barbecue sauce, teriyaki sauce, honey mustard, cocktail sauce, malt vinegar, cheese sauce

I picked up a love of curry sauce or garlic sauce on my fries during my time living in London.
Those folks do fast food right - cheap, easy to find, and greasy.
Rogan josh curry sauce (although most other curry sauces are also good). Chips and curry sauce is a really popular fast food in the UK, but the curry sauce in question is much closer to a brown sauce than it is to anything that's usually associated with the word "curry". So I make my own curry sauce and put it on instead. This does, of course, completely ruin the "fast" part of "fast food", but it is very tasty
Best thing I've ever had with fries was the pepper sauce they have at some "Frituurs" in Belgium. Can't really get that here in Germany unfortunately.
Truffle oil and lightly salt it
Shoarma or döner kebab, cheese, garlic sauce, a bit of sriracha or sambal, and some greens.
Or if I'm feeling simple, mayo and a bit of mustard.
Cheese 🧀
Grilled cheese.
Maggi's Hot and Sweet
Cooked barbeque sauce.
None of that raw shit.
Make sure you're not missing out in joppie sauce
Chili, nacho cheese sauce, and diced onions.
On fries I really only do ketchup. I use Sriracha on almost everything else that's primarily potato, but not fries. I used to use A1 steak sauce every so often a while back. I hadn't thought of that in years; might need to go pick up a bottle.
