This is amazing work but frankly not very helpful for me as a user. What is your top 3 recommendation? I just want to install something that works.

Typest is amazing, Claude Code + Opus 4.8 knows how to use it, but I found that Claude by default is crap at designing even a reasonably formatted PDF. E.g. Claude sets the line height to be so small, all the lines are squished together, and a 1-pager PDF is half blank.

I see many folks saying you're producing beautiful PDFs. How are you dealing with design?

This is one Chrome Extension I can't live without.

I've been using this ever since Manifest v3 killed Hacker News Extension Suite (HNES). HN comment threads are getting longer over time. Top links often have 1k+ comments now. The AI summary saves me a ton of time. I also use the extension with the new sorting function, sorting frontpage links by points, so I can focus on what's important.

HoudahSpot looks cool! What kind of query do you use it for that Spotlight can't find for you?

Makes sense, but how about Dropbox / iCloud Drive as alternatives? PDFs / images are somewhat small (at least relative to videos). I just stuff all my PDFs in Dropbox. I'm almost completely paperless and I don't seem to accumulate that many scanned docs to fill up even the free tier storage space.
