Hi! I'm Javi and I make little apps like Clipbasket.
One day, I copied something important. Spent the next hour reorganizing files, deleting old stuff, waiting for the moment to paste this thing. The whole time I was thinking: "It's fine, I have it in my clipboard."
Then I accidentally hit ⌘C on something else.
It was gone! I spent 45 minutes trying to recover it but I couldn't. I searched online if macOS kept a history of your clipboard, but I sadly learned this the hard way: your Mac's clipboard only holds one thing by default.
And that's why you're reading this website now.
