Emojist

Emoji that keep up with your typing. No picker, no scrolling

Emojist launched on July 24, 2026 with 2 votes.

What it does

Emojist is a native macOS menu-bar app for fast, system-wide emoji insertion. Type a word and a suggestion bar appears above your cursor: press a number to replace the word, or Option and a number to add the emoji next to it. Editable keywords and phrases, Quick Triggers, and Apply or Strip on a selection. Everything stays on your Mac.

Type a word anywhere on your Mac and Emojist shows matching emoji above the cursor. Press a number to swap it in. Includes phrases and text shortcuts.

Emojist lives in your menu bar and inserts emoji wherever you are typing, in any app. As you type a word, a small suggestion bar appears just above your cursor and narrows with every letter you add. Press a number from 1 to 9 to replace the word with that emoji, or hold Option and press a number to keep the word and add the emoji next to it. It is the speed of a keyboard shortcut with the memory of a picker. You decide how much it does. Every emoji starts in Suggest, so nothing ever inserts on its own. Flip the ones you use most to Auto and they type themselves, hands-free, on their exact keywords, and a single backspace right after undoes it. Multi-word Phrases suggest emoji for a whole…from appsbymo.app

    I might be the only SRE on Earth with his own bowling center. It's a more in-depth gig than you'd think. My family and I bought an abandoned 8-lane bowling center in the rural mid-west. In our small town there weren't many recreation options for families. You've heard of a food desert? This is an R&R desert. It had been abandoned for a good reason. The roof leaks, the electrical system was constantly surging, and my 70-year-old bowling equipment (still) doesn't work perfectly. The system that keeps your score is particularly interesting to me. It's the thing you watch during your game, but…

    Over the past few months, our team has been building more and more slidedecks using web frontend technologies with coding harnesses like Claude Code, but a common complaint is to make even small edits we need to edit the code either manually or via the harness. To avoid this loop, I ended up creating Bento, a single HTML file with everything you need in a slide tool including animations and shared editing. There's no install or cloud login, everything works offline. The default deck is around 560 KB and it doesn't need to fetch anything once you got it. Open it in a browser and then you can…

  • A few days ago I found myself trying out GLM 5.2 and was really positively impressed. The capabilities and security I was getting from this LLM are similar to those I've gotten from models like Claude or GPT, and this really surprised me. But then I thought, "I wonder how it would work on a normal computer like mine," and above all, "I wonder if it would work without going into OOM on a computer like mine." So I started working with the help of agents to test this possibility. I started converting the model to int4, understanding MTP usage, and if possible implementing DSA for long context.…

    Hello! For the last 2 months, I've been building OpenSEO. It's a user friendly UI wrapping the DataForSEO API which has high quality SEO data for keywords, backlinks, AI SEO and competitor research. Instead of paying $100+ per month, you buy DataForSEO credits and pay only for usage. The coolest thing about the project so far has been hearing about what people are building on top of it. People are using coding agents to quickly integrate with Google Search Console, Google Ads and building their own AI SEO and reporting features. Many were already building their own custom solutions around…
