Useful stuff here, I'll definitely be trying Starship.
Sell me on Raycast? I'm a long-time Alfred user, keep hearing / reading comments about folks using Raycast, but since you're someone who made the switch, talk me through it?
I'm well overdue to put together a .uses myself, might get around to it sooner rather than even later...

I was happy with Alfred and then I tried out Raycast. It did everything Alfred did that I was using and even more.
I use it for window management, it has built in converters for measurements, etc.
I know there are Alfred workflows for that, but basically I just couldn't be bothered to switch back.
Although I already paid for the Alfred PowerPack, for folks looking for a free solution for personal use, Raycast is a good option.
