Mine are:

“breg” → Best regards, Helmut
“cheer” → Cheers, Helmut
“atb” → all the best, Helmut"
“===” → ================================ …which I use as divider of sections in email
“hha” → which expand into my working email address
“taht” → TidBITS AutoCorrect “that” → not a very complicated word :sweat_smile:
“hte” → TidBITS AutoCorrect “that” → By now I should know how to write the :sweat_smile:
“[12” → [12-Week Productivity Challenge] → email header for emails about the productivity challenges that I organise.

It seems, I do a lot of email and don’t know how to write basic English words :rofl:

haha, mostly just code snippets for me, and some regular Dutch.. Most expanded however is “dm”, which expands to the current date. Did it 834 times this year.

Total saved time is probably more impressive: 33h59 minutes. That’s almost a full week of typing the regular way. :joy:

Mine most expanded Snippets are my intro and outros, basically “Dear customer thanks for contacting blah blah” and then a closing thanks etc.
The nice thing I used to optimize was a small snippet another person from the community coded in Java to pick different greetings based on time of day or adjectives for the closing (nice day, great day, good day etc) also based on time of day so that even though they are expanded snippets they aren’t too robotic and uniform if i have a couple back and forth emails with the same customer.

Hi @AmandaEdson, many of us use the TidBITS Autocorrect Public Group for that! (Fun fact: I was Managing Editor there for about a decade.)
