This is the type of quality you get from a 100k+ sub channel, not

[@baguapalm]

Just the real usage of Alfred with no b......! Love it thanks

[@MattVanWormer]

Wow, thanks Jesse for taking the time to show what this can do. I'm no geek but this is really elegant and quick!!

[@albertcarrete]

Thanks mate. That script to open iTerm really helped me out in getting input into the console with custom workflows. Appreciate it.

[@code_explorations]

I'm loving all your videos, Jesse. Thanks a lot.

[@pur3D3votion]

The content is just amazing, thank you so much for sharing!

[@AliXDream9]

[@mauriciodelaquintana4250]

Good video

[@koldosagarzazu4692]

Nice video! I would like that specific video about Alfred Workflows

[@jesse19skelton]

Working on it 👍

[@adrianlammers1229]

@@jesse19skelton Would also like to see this! :)

[@lucasferrer7005]

useful

[@babacartoure4811]

Still waiting for episode 2

[@sandeepgupta9]

@ 4:46 please tell what command to get preview of file ?please tell.

[@jesse19skelton]

Just press SHIFT. You may have to go into Alfred's settings > Features > Previews > and check the box that says "Shift to Quick Look Selected Item".

[@drvoodoo3073]

I've tried really hard to justify getting Alfred but failed... I can do everything except running Terminal commands directly using the built in Spotlight and using its modifier keys. To run system commands and custom Terminal commands I've created Script Editor and Automator applications that I can trigger via Spotlight to do the exact same thing. MacOS also has its own built in Snippets feature called Text Replacements.

[@bhagatparwinder]

What's the iTerm theme/color config you are using?

[@jesse19skelton]

I'll do a vid on that soon. Basically, I created a profile with the window to be slightly transparent and black background and tabs.

[@in_the_pines]

@@jesse19skelton yeah, your iterm theme is dope. Can you make a video with your custom settings?

[@oleholgerson3416]

I think the biggest difference is to use the „minimal“ theme instead of regular.

[@b0red7]

can u do a note app guide for apps like notion vs taskade?

[@jesse19skelton]

Yea, i'll do one for notion in the future.

[@amyisreallybored]

you sound just like Sam O'Nella lol

[@jesse19skelton]

Thanks?

[@curiosophy4241]

Alfred would only list 3 items when I search for files with similar names :-(

[@jesse19skelton]

Do you mean Alfred isn't finding certain files on your computer? If so check out the help guide here : www.alfredapp.com/help/troubleshooting/indexing/ .. Maybe your search scope is not right.

[@marymoore1960]

Thank you for that it was very informative, however, if you could lose the music! It's very annoying and not enhancing your video. This isnt' a criticism just for your own info.

[@Aim4sixmeals]

Mary Moore its not annoying to me makes it actually pleasant to listen to

[@somethingsmith3242]

It's command "option" not alt..
