Thanks, Paul. You’ve got me convinced of giving it a try. I have used Launchbar for 1.5 year but I find it quite cumbersome to learn how to use the multiple features it offers. Raycast looks simple and intuitive. I look forward to trying this app. And certainly look forward to attending more of your videos.

This is exactly what I’ve been looking at. Saw a video a year ago about best apps to ease your workflow on Mac. This app was on the list, but it didn’t explain how to use and then I just abandoned it. Thanks for the video

Just start small and you'll form new habits with it over time.

I have a question: When I type in my passwords for log in to - lets say - my bank accounts - are they too visible in the clipboard history?

@minor-co

They probably would be. However, if you use a password manager like 1Password, they come with settings which prevent passwords from being copied to your clipboard.

frankly saying, things have been very easy to set up in Raycast for the most part. And it contains a lot of extensions. the free Alfred can be a very good lightweight search tool, for searching Mac, executing system commands, and saving quick links stuff for searching the internet, only that. you can use it if you feel Raycast is overwhelming. I haven't used the paid version of Alfred, I just explored the free version in sometime and removed it.
