24 alternatives to HyperPaste
To me it always felt like clipboard history was one of the few things missing from macOS. There are already some excellent clipboard managers available, but after trying quite a few of them I kept coming back to the same goal: I wanted something that felt like it belonged on macOS. Fast, keyboard-first, private, and visually restrained. One thing I felt strongly about from the beginning was that it had to be open source. Clipboard managers have access to some of the most sensitive data we copy — passwords, API keys, personal information, financial details — and for something that sits in the…

Hey HN, As a Software Engineer, I frequently copy and paste content. The fact that macOS clipboard buffer can keep only one item is very frustrating. It’s very annoying to copy → switch app → paste → switch app → copy → switch app → paste, and so on. Losing items I copied hours ago and having to find and copy them again is a waste of time. I tried many third-party clipboard managers like Alfred, Raycast, Paste, Maccy, etc. While great, they didn't fully meet my needs. As a developer, my requirements are: 1. Keyboard-centric operation to avoid using the mouse. I don’t want to waste my time…

Cliptop▲112Hi HN, I built Cliptop, a clipboard history app for macOS. Yes, it is another clipboard manager. I built it because I wanted one that felt fast from the keyboard, stayed local, handled more than plain text, and did not make me think too much about sensitive clipboard items. The main things I focused on: * Keyboard-first search and paste * Local clipboard history for text, links, code, images, files, colors, and design layers (e.g. Figma) * Quick actions like paste as plain text, color format conversion, image crop, background removal, and Markdown conversion * Pinboards for saving items and…

Hello HN, I’m Joseph, a solo developer. I built CustomPaste because I was frustrated by the binary choice standard clipboard tools give us: either keep all the messy formatting (background colors, huge fonts) or strip everything down to plain text. We all know Ctrl+Shift+V (paste as plain text), but that is often too destructive, it kills hyperlinks, bolding, and lists when I usually just want to normalize the font family (e.g., force Arial 11pt) or remove background colors. I wanted a tool that let me "strip exactly what I want, and keep exactly what I want." The Solution: Instead of a…

It’s been one month since I launched CopyMagic, a smarter clipboard manager for macOS that makes sure you never lose anything you copy. Instead of digging through endless items, you can type things like “URL from Slack”, “flight information”, or “crypto rate” and it instantly finds what you meant. It’s all completely offline and privacy-first (we don’t even track analytics).
