ClipboardShield – A Clipboard Firewall for Windows (FOSS)
I’d like to introduce ClipboardShield [1], a free open-source clipboard firewall for Windows 10/11. It helps protect against clipboard hijacking attacks [2], where malicious apps silently read or modify clipboard contents (e.g., replacing copied cryptocurrency addresses to modify the recipient and steal user’s funds or stealing sensitive data like passwords). How it works: - Define rules to allow or block clipboard access for specific apps. - Prevent unauthorized apps from reading or modifying clipboard contents. - Open-source and community-driven – contributions are welcome! - Since…

We are longtime members of HN and this is our only submission requesting feedback from the HN community on our product, Clipboard which we have been developing for the past year. Clipboard is a service to save anything online using a bookmarklet or browser extension (think Dropbox for content on the web). Clipboard is built using open source technologies, including Riak, Redis, NGINX, Node.js, and jQuery. One of our core differentiators is how we preserve the visual look and functionality of the original source, which is evident in the sample clips from github here:…

ClipCapsule – A Clipboard Manager for Linux (Built with Go and Wails)2025 · github.com · ▲31Hey HN I built a tool called ClipCapsule, a clipboard manager for Linux that's designed to be entirely keyboard-driven. Here’s what it does: Lets you recall and paste previous clipboard entries using just CTRL + SHIFT + 1~9. Keeps a history of everything you copy, in a local database. Moves selected items to the top of the clipboard stack (so CTRL + V pastes it). Built with Go + WailsJS for a fast native feel. No cloud. No telemetry. No fluff. Right now, you’ll need to run it with sudo or allow access to /dev/input/eventX for keyboard capture. We’re working on a proper daemon…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
