vaporATX Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Been a Quicksilver user for years and was just wondering if others have seen the light? http://docs.blacktree.com/quicksilver/what_is_quicksilver Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/101802-so-how-many-people-use-quicksilver/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Baron Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I love it. Got quite a few tasteful bezels for it. When I do a clean OS X install, it takes me just a few minutes to remember to install QS, unlike some apps that I can do without for weeks.

Ongeloof Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I have it, but i don't use it, i just can't see the point of another launcher. Its like Rock dock on windows, when you already have the start bar. Which, although possible, is hard to get rid off. Just like the Dock on OS X. Prefer mah dock...

Berzerker Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I can't live without it. It's how I open/switch to programs. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/101802-so-how-many-people-use-quicksilver/#findComment-726160 Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaporATX Posted April 27, 2008 Author Share Posted April 27, 2008 Yeah, the dock is way too slow and clunky as is the Finder. I can do like five things in the time it takes to do one using the dock/finder. If you are a fast typist having to take your hand off the keyboard to grab the mouse is just counter productive.

Black_Mamba Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I love it, use it every second and cannot live without it :-) When I reinstall an OSX, it is the very first non-Apple app that I install....

Synaesthesia Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 I love Quicksilver! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/101802-so-how-many-people-use-quicksilver/#findComment-727422 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Embio Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 love Quicksilver! I have mine mapped to control+spacebar with control being mapped to caps lock - most natural keystroke ever. I use it for all sorts, I find that as I use it more I find a problem and think 'I wonder if Quicksilver can do this....' and it usually can. Growl, Quicksilver and Geektool stop me using Linux or any other OS for any length of time....
