Found a trick for smoothing out butt joints without sanding forever

I was in the middle of a 2,000 square foot basement job in Denver last month and the butt joints were killing me. Tried that trick where you slightly overfill the joint and then scrape it flat with a 10 inch knife before it dries. Cut my sanding time in half easy. Anyone else do this or am I just late to the party?

That 10 inch knife trick saved my bacon on a big basement job last year.

Used that same trick two weeks ago and it saved me a ton of headache too.
