> Another thing: is it possible to turn off the words like finagling and similar (I can't remember the spelling of any of them) ?

Big +1 on that. I find the names needlessly distracting. I want to just always say a single thing like “thinking”

You should be able to do something like this:

    "spinnerVerbs": {
      "mode": "replace",
      "verbs": ["Thinking"]
    }

Thank you for the config and the link, that's very much appreciated!

I remember they shipped a feature so that’s configurable.
