Mac os 27.2 improved spotlight performance

[u/Spiritual_Show]

It’s less glitchy, and search is instant. I also discovered two keyboard shortcuts that I find really useful:

• Reveal in Finder (⌘R): I remapped it to ⌘ + Return using BetterTouchTool (BTT), triggered on key release. For some reason, I can’t access the right-click context menu using ⌃ + Return. For now, I can only open it by right-clicking with the cursor.
• File filtering with / : You can type /pdf to filter PDF files, for example, but you still need to press the Down Arrow and select the filter manually.

Overall, it’s a better Spotlight experience. However, these extra steps and missing workflow shortcuts may still keep power users on Raycast or Alfred, as both offer much more powerful customization and automation.

Note: I disabled the Ask feature in the right-click context menu via Terminal, but doing so also made Visual Intelligence disappear from screenshot and screen-capture apps such as TextSniper and CleanShot X.

I'm chuckling as I have no idea what you have said here, which I attribute to my advanced age and lack of current parlance.
