Show HN: SlickGPT
Agreed! I've found that staying in my workflow leads to fewer inadvertent context switches (like ChatGPT in-browser -> HN -> ... -> rabbit hole). MacGPT looks great. I created a similar plugin for my Windows keystroke launcher for the same reason. If anyone's interested, you can check it out here: https://github.com/dkgv/pinpoint

Sol: Open-source Alfred/Raycast alternative for macOS
I shared the exact same sentiment when I transitioned to Windows after a long period of only using macOS. I eventually began building a launcher myself using C# and over time it has become my daily driver. Feel free to check it out at https://github.com/dkgv/pinpoint, PRs welcome :-)
A few other nice candidates I found include:
- Keypirinha: https://keypirinha.com/
- Wox: https://github.com/Wox-launcher/Wox
- ueli: https://github.com/oliverschwendener/ueli

What's a program you made that you actually use regularly?
Don't have a video unfortunately, but you can download it from here: https://github.com/dkgv/pinpoint/releases (pick the stand-alone release unless you have .NET 5 installed already)

My friend and I made an open source, extensible keystroke launcher for Windows
As the title states we made a keystroke launcher for Windows, sort of an Alfred alternative. It is definitely still a work in progress, but we do have quite a few features at this point such as controlling Spotify, searching the web via DuckDuckGo bangs and a lot more. A full list of features and a download link is available at our repo at https://github.com/dkgv/pinpoint. If you're interested in trying it out or even contributing, please check it out :)
