For Windows Users 💻:

Keyboard Maestro is not available for Windows, but you can achieve similar functionality with alternatives. We recommend AutoHotkey, which is a powerful, free, and open-source option. You don't need expensive software like Soundflow to create your own shortcuts—it's easier and cheaper than you think! 💰
