Cliptop
Hi 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…

What it does
Cliptop is a fast, local-first clipboard manager for Mac. Open it from the notch or menu bar, search recent copies, preview text, links, code, images, files, and colors, save key items to Pinboards, and paste back without losing focus.
Cliptop is a private clipboard history app for Mac, iPhone, and iPad. Search, sync, and paste text, links, images, files, and colors across your devices.
Save, search, and paste your clips on Mac, iPhone, and iPad without breaking your flow. “Cliptop saves me from a surprising amount of context switching . I used to be constantly switching between apps and my notepad copying prompts, links, snippets, and passwords, but having clipboard history right where I'm working with a bunch of keyboard shortcuts makes the whole workflow flow nicely.” Cliptop keeps the clipboard jobs you do all day close to the app you are already using. Search text, links, files, screenshots, code snippets, colors, and pinned clips without opening a separate workspace. Group reusable links, snippets, screenshots, and brand assets into pinboards so everyday…from cliptop.app

A keyboard-centric clipboard history app for macOS2024 · clipbook.app · ▲141Hey 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…

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
