pbcopy/pbpaste across machines via Gitlab Snippets

In plain words

This tool enables users to copy and paste content across different machines using GitLab Snippets as a intermediary storage. It works by leveraging GitLab's snippet feature to sync clipboard data between devices. The solution is designed for developers and technical users who need to transfer text and code snippets between computers without manual uploading or email. It automates the process of sharing small pieces of content through a cloud-based platform.

  Copy from tmux/nvim to clipboard over SSH2024 · mil.ad · ▲38

  Copying text to clipboard when working on a remote machine via SSH can be tricky. While you can usually highlight text with your mouse to copy it to the primary selection clipboard (and paste with middle-click), this approach has limitations.

  Clippy – a better pbcopy for macOS that handles files properly2025 · github.com · ▲34

  I made clippy because pbcopy can't do something I needed every day: copy files to paste into GUI apps. When you pbcopy < image.png, you get raw bytes instead of a file that Slack or email can use. Clippy fixes this: - clippy report.pdf → ⌘V into any app uploads the file - curl image.png | clippy → pipes become pasteable files - clippy *.jpg → multiple files at once - Text files still work like pbcopy Technical: Direct Objective-C bindings via CGo. Copies file references (like Finder), not contents. Auto-cleans temp files. No AppleScript hacks. Install: brew install…

  Talanoa▲340

  Hi 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…
