It all starts with a blank canvas.
But this time there is no amazing journey, it's just utility in its purest form. Basic functionality that you need for work or anything else for that matter.
​
Everybody needs to copy paste text and images, and if you're like me, then the basic macOS functionality is not enough.
I sometimes find myself adding something to the clipboard and then get dragged into another task and have my clipboard content overridden and maybe I navigated to a completely different space inside my workflow so it's not trivial to get that back.

Not anymore.
​
Now I can just have all my clipboard history at my finger tips. Need something from 2 hours ago? No problem.
​
Took 20 screenshots of things and don't remember in which order? Simple again, there's a preview.
​
Open the clipboard with the shortcut.
Tweak options, or just clear your whole clipboard.
​
It really is nothing more than that.
Just copy - paste.
Just Clipboard Commander
Make it yours.
