some other slight differences in searching and tabbing and typing. Like there's still differences, but I can get by with Alfred. That is my choice, my personal choice for replacement. But the time spent sort of porting your world from one thing to another very much reminded me of what it will be like someday when I'm forced to port my world from TCSH to another shell.

And if that's all you do... I have to say, Spotlight is really good these days. It is much better than it used to be. Every time I'm on like a default Mac and I use Spotlight, I'm like like Spotlight is honestly one of my contenders for a Quicksilver replacement is just use Spotlight. It's not as configurable as any of those cool launchers and everything, which is bad, but it's still pretty quick.

And, you know, like consider that.

Do you open files or folders with it?

Yeah, I'm kind of dreading, well, not dreading, like we've been saying for years, Apple needs to add multiple clipboard support to all their OSes.

Disabled by default, but available because it is such, like once, you know, every nerd in the world has gone to multiple clipboards for like a decade now, right? And it is a nerd feature. But at this point, I feel like, kind of like the second mouse button, it's like, it's so important. Every OS needs to have second mouse button support built in and also multiple clipboard support built in.

You can disable it by default so not to confuse people, but it's got to be there. But the danger for people like us is, okay, but we all got our favorite third-party clipboard managers that we've been using for a decade. Now the question is, do I keep using my third-party one or do I switch to the system one?

Switching to the system one is like, oh, it's one fewer thing I have to worry about installing or whatever, but it surely will work differently than whatever third-party one we're using. And we've got all our muscle memory problem. And it's not like Apple's going to make it infinitely configurable. So Apple, please add multiple clipboard support to every single OS you make.

but please also do not disable the ability for us to use our third-party ones. You probably need some accessibility permission that requires 17 dialogues and you have to read them every week.

Yeah, Raycast is one of the fancy new launchers.

Yeah, it really is the thing about the shell thing because it's like, just to give one example, one of the things I use Quicksilver for is mounting volumes. because the finder sucks so bad that mounting them through the finder is like pulling teeth. But if I can hit command space and type two letters and it returned, it's so much faster.
