Ok, I will try to explain this better
The main power of this app is that I am not trying to compete with them.
I work together with them.
For example, I put my ExtraBar RayCast deeplinks into a logical menu structure so they are easy to access and remember.
Instead of opening Raycast, looking for the actions, sometimes RayCast is opened on a different screen, so I need to go back, etc.
I just put the most used action on the ExtraBar menu and use simple keyboard navigation to trigger it.
The same goes for Keyboard Maestro.
I have this Reddit post that someone posted on ExtraBar:

That has some explanation of how he uses it, so this may be helpful to get more usecases example
- crazygringo 8mo agoOk that's definitely helpful. At this point I'm not really asking questions here for you to answer on HN -- just more pointing out that these are the kinds of things your site needs to explain. What this competes with vs. what it works together with is a great angle. I assumed ExtraBar was intended to be its own all-in-one solution for executing commands. Now that you say it also works together with other utilities, that changes my perception completely.
