Been using it for a long time but found myself more and more using Shortcuts and HammerSpoon instead.
Maybe a few very basic things that I still have in KM are stuff like “paste as keyboard strokes”, muting my audio when stuff changes and the occasionally keyboard shortcut remap (because it syncs across my machines in contrast to the macOS native thing)
Curious what the people here use KM for. What are some of your use cases?
- SloopJon 3y agoI mainly use it for text expansion, which I find easier to remember and type than multi-key shortcuts. That part of my brain is already full of Emacs key bindings. I switched from TextExpander to Keyboard Maestro years ago. I have web-specific macros that basically act as cross-browser bookmarks. I have terminal-specific macros for the shell and other REPLs. I even have a macro for a VPN client that refuses to remember my username (over twenty characters, including a domain name).
