- si2 17y agoWhy do you use Quicksilver over Spotlight?
- HalcyonMuse 17y agoQuicksilver responds much faster than Spotlight does, even when Spotlight has "indexed" the disk. I only use Quicksilver for launching applications (i.e. I don't do anything even slightly advanced with it) but it's still satisfying because Quicksilver will find the app as I type it, whereas Spotlight will think for a few seconds.
- weaksauce 17y agoQuicksilver allows you want to do something other than find and open a file. Though if that is all you want to do quicksilver opens as a default action. Coming from a linux background I like to automate/do things faster whenever I can so quicksilver is just one way to do that.
- whalesalad 17y agoI also rarely use my dock, and use Launchbar to get apps runnin. Here's a typical day for my dock: http://www.grabup.com/uploads/c712431bcfb2b9658fe44b5062ff604a.png?direct http://www.grabup.com/uploads/c712431bcfb2b9658fe44b5062ff60...
