What do you map your Alfred Trigger to?

[nikivi]

I am curious because just now I realised that I can map it to a single click of left shift with karabiner and it is amazing. Before it was on my right command with a single click too. I also use shift from the keyboard by holding down semicolon so I don't worry if I ever accidentally press shift while writing capital letter. Seriously, an alfred trigger on just the left shift is phenomenal. 

 

What are your guy's trigger for opening up Alfred?

I map it to ⌃␣. Sounds more exciting than it really is, it’s just plain boring Ctrl+Space. Cmd+Space is a standard shortcut for launchers, but it’s also commonly used by graphic design applications for the zoom tool, so I moved it to the next nearest thing.

Mine is/was mapped to Capslock. I used karabiner which is currently broken under Sierra. For now I'm using a workaround with 

Keyboard Maestro tho ^^

When karabiner works again, I will actually move that to another combo as I want to use my Capslock as a hyper key. Let's see

Yeah, waiting for karabiner to get updated to I can update too. Hope it won't be too long.

Why not Option+Space?  That's what I use.

Because in those same applications where ⌘␣ is zoom in, usually ⌥␣ is zoom out.
