You're content really is top notch. As a Mac power user I usually know most of these hacks. But the Shift feature for hot corners is a real game changer.

Another awesome video, Jeff. Super helpful! Question, how do you prioritise Spotlight vs Alfred? I personally replaced the spotlight shortcut to activate with Alfred, but watching this video feels like i'm missing out on a lot of the native spotlight features now

@JeffSu

6 ай бұрын

I use both now. CMD+Space = Alfred (primary), and OPT + Space = Spotlight (secondary)

Those are some solid Keep notes. Mine are only the write ups I do for LinkedIn and scraps of ideas that go to die... haha Great tips! I have a dusty old macbook from 2018, so we'll see if I get an update and if it will play nice!

The spacebar is the typical keyboard key used to activate web & system OS checkboxes / radio buttons in settings. Using enter will sometimes return an entry of some text you typed in a text box (thats probably not even visible on your screen or in the background) causing issues. Highly recommend using SPC vs ENT.

@@JeffSu - Native Extensions: Raycast provides extensive native extensions sand script commands, offering deeper integration and efficiency. - Modern UI: Features a modern and clean user interface, aligning well with the latest macOS design aesthetics. - Cost-Effective: Raycast is free, making it accessible without the need for purchasing additional features like Alfred's Powerpack. And so much more. To try it is to adopt it; perhaps a future video on the topic? 👀
