Do you use userscripts or other automation options like autohotkey? Which ones do you find most useful? Could you recommend some good sources(including lemmy communities) that are on the topic? (lemmy.sdf.org)

Had read about them recently when looking up about bookmarklets:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Userscript

Which userscript manager do you use? What are your opinions/advice on security of using them?

Also, are there other similar things like bookmarklets and userscripts that regular people can start off fast?

Are there any lemmy communities or resouces(wikis, forums, youtube channels etc) that are on the topic of simple/beginner-friendly automation and customisation?

Thanks in advance

This is not exactly an answer to your question, but I thought I would share anyway.

I use Obsidian for all sorts of PC work, and there are a multitude of plugins and scripts to automate and organise all sorts of tasks. I have no need for any scripts outside of this program.

https://obsidian.md/

Edit: let me know if you are interested and want some tips. There are a million tutorials and articles out there too.

Is like to hear about some of these as well. I've been using Obsidian for years and never thought to have it do "something outside of Obsidian".

My main use of it is to sync my notes across different devices (and I'm not too crazy about taking notes in it).
