I'm forever surprised how much this has improved my day to day working life. Simple things like having to input test email addresses and passwords on our dev environment repeatedly, or typing out addresses, or scaffolding basic scripts and code, or massively speeding up note taking. Genuinely worth digging in to.

Do you mind expanding (!) on how you use expanso for note taking? Thanks!

Sure! I have some snippets for common note taking formats and templates I use in Obsidian, like if I want to put a little "read later" section, or I want to specify next week/month/whatever without looking at a calendar. Basically, if I find myself writing something with any regularity or if it's anything that can be very easily computed, I think about making an Espanso shortcut for it!
