The readme hardly explains what it does.

Is it a keyboard macro service? E.g. for a given keyboard shortcut I get a predefined sequence of keys pressed?

The name is teetering on the edge of hilarity for British users.

So it's text expansion. Maybe you should just call it that? Also I 100% thought it was a keylogger with some relation to a sex act in the UK, which is why I clicked in the first place. Maybe not a great name for something as innocuous and not entirely erotic like text expansion.

There is Expanso for xorg

Look into Espanso as well. Works great, and is cross-platform.

How does it compare to kanata and kmonad?

Found especially kanata a delight to use, while being both minimal, if needed, and maximally feature-filled if desired.

There is AutoKey for Linux and X11.

I've been using Ydotool[1] for this, and it works really well.

Looks like a cross between an IME and autocomplete. Although in my case, I think I would prefer a proper IME, or maybe something like dmenu with fuzzy search, to invoke on an "as needed" basis.

This is exactly what I wanted (a macro for my email address). Thanks!

you know what I really want?

A macro for copy and paste, so I can re-map it to whatever key combination I want across all apps in linux.
