TextExpander: From Archaeology to Actual Use
My TextExpander library had become a museum of dead projects. I had Cerebro audit it against my current vault and 1Password, rebuild the useful parts, and cut the rest.
I’ve been on a lifetime discount for TextExpander for years and barely using it — the library had turned into a museum of past projects, old identities, and inside jokes from eras long gone. So I had Cerebro audit it against my current vault context and 1Password data, rebuild the useful parts, and cut the rest.
Cerebro found that ~70% of the library was archaeological: snippets for projects, identities, and jokes from past eras. The reason it wasn’t being used wasn’t a habit problem — it was an inventory problem. Rebuilt from current vault context and 1Password data, it’s now something I actually reach for.
