What it does
BetterClipboard is a free native clipboard manager for macOS. Copy text, links, files, or images - then press ⌘ twice. A small panel appears with your recent history. Click an item to paste. That’s it. No account, no subscription, minimal permissions. Feels like it belongs on macOS: clean UI, system-style blur, pin important items, search, and filter by type or date when you need more power.
BetterClipboard is a free native clipboard manager for macOS. No ads. No telemetry. No subscriptions. - 5hzdqd4788-afk/betterclipboard
BetterClipboard is a lightweight native clipboard manager built for macOS. It provides instant access to your clipboard history through a clean popup window designed to feel like a built-in macOS feature. P.S. The repository does not contain the most up-to-date source code; attempting to run it via Xcode may result in errors. BetterClipboard requests Accessibility permission only to detect the global Double Command shortcut. Without this permission the application will continue to work normally. The only unavailable feature will be the global keyboard shortcut. You can still access BetterClipboard at any time from the menu bar icon. curl -fsSL…from github.com

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…
CliptopJun 2026 · cliptop.app · ▲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…

Talanoa▲339Hi 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…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
