Is there any way (or any addon) that I can insert commonly used text into a text box? I have tried AutoFill and, while it works fine for... well.. filling out forms... I cannot get it to work for what I need. Basically, I want to insert things like '¯\_(ツ)_/¯' rather than having to go to a page, select that, copy it, go back and paste it... or, worse yet ... remember and type that over and over again.

Did you try this one? https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/textarea-cache/

I didn't, but I looked at it just now. That doesn't seem to be quite what I am looking for. From what I read, this seems to monitor text boxes and caches it in case the page crashes so you can recover that without losing what you've typed. That does look like something I could use (I usually SelectAll | Copy every time I submit text just in case) but this isn't what I'm looking for in this case, though. Thank you, though.

Maybe an extension like these:

Thank you! Smart Text Expander didn't seem to work no matter what I did, but TextFast seems to work great. Thank you. I just didn't know what keywords to search for. I really appreciate it.
