   SO much better than PhraseExpress!

   This setup is a little more hands on to install and setup, but it is worth it. No weird glitches, crashing or other issues, it just a simple system works as it should.

   It doesn't have all the same features as PhraseExpress, but if you are like me and just want a text expander, they are features you will never need or use anyway.

   The setup instructions are clear and concise. They do take a minute to get your head around compared to other software installs that I am used to, but as the instructions are on point, it is not difficult.

   I am using this on macOS and will be trying it on Windows soon too.

   🏁 Competitors: PhraseExpress

   👍 Pros:    Works perfectly|Cost effective|Great, clear setup instructions

   👎 Cons:    Requries some more setup beyond the usual 'double click' and done

• Remade Book cover from last post, I think it looks better, what's your opinionon it.

  — Never use a font that came with your computer (or one that looks like it does). fonts.google.com has tons of free good-looking fonts. fontsquirrel.com has good cheap and free fonts. tendollarfonts.com, as the name suggests, has cheap fonts. Don't just pick one at random. Look at other, professionally-designed books. Find a type treatment you like, think about what makes it work, try and do something similar. Source: about 1 year ago

• Opinions on the cover? (I've tried a vector cover for the first time!)

  The general rule of thumb for fonts is, never use the ones that came with your computer. fonts.google.com has a bunch of great ones for free. fontsquirrel.com and tendollarfonts.com both have good free and/or cheap ones. Source: about 1 year ago

• Twitch's Alerts: CSS Issues

  I've got a problem with the new Twitch's Alerts feature. I can't modify the CSS code to add my own font. When I click to validate there's an error message. Yet, I use exactly the same code line with streamlabs.com as well as streamelements.com's alerts, I generated it thanks to fontsquirrel.com and it works very well. Source: about 1 year ago

• Show HN: I automated 1/2 of my typing

  I use a tool called "Espanso" to accomplish something similar at work. It only runs locally, so no weird data scraping issues to worry about. And it's easy to update as things changes becauase everything lives in a simple yml file. https://espanso.org/ It can do simple text replacement, so I have words, phrases, and sentences I use frequently compressed into a few keyboard clicks.
