  1. Verify your settings [System Preferences > Keyboard > Text]
  2. Open a compose window (potentally any other text box)
  3. Type "omw "

Actual results:

typed text stays as it was typed.

Expected results:

Expected: replace "omw " with "On my way! " (or what ever text replacements were set up)

A similar bugreport was closed for Firefox here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1149826

Component: Untriaged → Message Compose Window
See Also: → 1149826

The Firefox bug was fixed but only for enabled 136+. Try a Daily build?

OK. 136 seems to support this. GUI is a bit unclear (is there a keyboard shortcut to accept the proposed replacement? Maybe add a hint to the bubble opening?
Apart from this i guess the issue can be closed.
