Why StashPaste Light
A little history. Less to carry.
The familiar StashPaste approach, designed around the work you are doing now.
Designed to forget
Light does not intentionally persist clipboard history as a database on disk. Sparkle update checks include a random installation ID for aggregate usage statistics.
LOCAL MEMORY
Useful by default
Find items with search and filters. Pin, annotate and hide records, with Simple and Advanced views to suit your workflow.
