Text Expansion (Typinator) does not work in Obsidian

I use a text expansion on macOS called Typinator. It does not work in Obsidian. This has been described in previous locked threads that I am not allowed to link to for some reason. However, the issue is still present four years later. Can this be fixed please?

Once you make a few more topics, reply to folks, give and get some hearts, you’ll be able to post links. It’s a spam prevention measure for new users. For now you can mark the link as inline code or in a fenced code block, the same as in Obsidian. e.g.

`https://help.obsidian.md`

or

```
https://docs.obsidian.md
```

Maybe Typinator doesn’t work anymore because of permissions?
Did you check system settings, then look for panes related to applications / privileges / security? (I don’t use Mac anymore, can’t give you exact directions)

Next, you could try a free text expander:

Also, search Obsidian’s community plugins and you’ll find more than a hand of text expanders.
