I really like Spotlight on macOS, but Raycast adds a bunch of great features. I've tried Alfred, and although I like it, I can't really justify the price. I like that I can pretty easily write my own Raycast extensions, but I've found that I haven't really needed to since those that are already available cover my needs.
Firstly I upgraded to warp from built-in terminal, and now the time has come for spotlight search. So far so good. Quick commands are cool, extensions provide great options too.
Such a wonderful tool! I've only begun to explore the features and am already hooked. I am a newcomer to the mac ecosystem, and prefer to mask the defaults whenever possible.
One of the best tools. I even replaced some other products I used for many years, since many routines and tasks can now be easily performed via Raycast. Spend some time to read their manual and docs, you'll find many interesting things there.
