In addition to Lintalist and Auspex, here are a few:

Beeftext - https://beeftext.org/
Atext - https://www.trankynam.com/atext/
QuickTextPaste - https://www.softwareok.com/?seite=Microsoft/QuickTextPaste
AutoText - https://www.jitbit.com/autotext/

... and

FastKeys - https://www.fastkeysautomation.com/

I put that one separately because it's paid. However, it does a lot more than asked, and if that's useful to you, it's $19.

Pareidol:
Thanks for all your ideas, sadly no one fits what I need.
But maybe my explanation was not clearly enough.
I made a quick mockup.

There should be a settingsdialogue where you set the alias that should be shown, and the text that should then be sent.
When you press anywhere the hotkey, a list popps up near your cursor, there you can select one entry, that sends then the text "behind", and the list disappears.
You should have the option to change the hotkey and export and import the list.

P.S.: I didn't got mail notifications, so I nearly forgot my request.

FastKeys could do that.



Note that it shows that exact use case in this image- you can assign more than one snippet to the same abbreviation, and even put a list of snippets on the regular context menu that you can launch with a hotkey.

You could kind of also use mouser's FARR for that.
1. Create an alias with keyword value pairs in this format

--- ---keyword | paste value
abc | paste 123
golf | paste don't forget to play golf
2. Set a regex pattern for the alias. For example

--- ---^zz$3. Set up a special hotkey in FARR to open FARR and trigger the alias (which then shows the list of keys). Under "Text for search edit box" add "zz" (the string that will trigger the alias).

But then you need to remember the keyword that will be replaced, am I right?
So you enter "abc" and it will be replaced by "paste 123"
