If you are already using Alfred[1] (with PowerPack), then snippets are your friend. Combine this with macOS's own Text Replacement[2], can cover most needs. You add up your snippets as you go along and sync/backup it so you won't have to re-do on each install/upgrade. I also found out that it is easier to use "," as a deliminator as there is no way I will type a normal English word with a comma then a character... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
First, I have to make a personal confession — I never liked the SMS short-hand thingy that worked with pre-iPhone phones. That was one of the reason I use SMS/Text-Messages unless I really need to. I have been using text-expansion since the early days of TextExpander[1], an app that works on iOS and macOS. However good the iPhone keyboard was, it was always not convenient to type and retype details such as home... - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

Anyone seen a note-taking app where you can just drag and drop sentences, paragraphs, notes etc. Into buckets/folders or similar types of divides. Perhaps like https://speare.com - would really like an easier way to collect together refs than exhausting copy and paste. For my book I ended up printing out notes, cutting them up, and arranging them in stacks. Was great fun but I find it insane there is not any... Source: about 1 year ago
Is there a function on Obsidian - or any other application - where you can just drag and drop sentences, paragraphs, notes etc. (or atomic notes) into buckets/folders or similar types of divides. The notes are small - sometimes a sentence or a clause - and for that reason I don't tend to use Obsidian due to having to make a note title for each file. I am looking more for something like https://speare.com - an... Source: about 1 year ago
