Cons
Con Only simple text - no support for rich text data
Con No way to edit clips
Once a clip is stored you cannot edit it at all, one can delete it and create a new one but no direct way of editing.
Con Clipboard History is limited to 3 months
Con Bad UI
Does not match the MacOS UI theme.
Con Does not really clear clipboard history
Still investigating but even though you clear clipboard history large portions and an as yet to be determined number of previous clipboard actions remain in the same file used to store 'snippets' - namely ~/Library/Application Support/ com.clipy-app.Clipy/default.realm.
Con Can't paste after one action
Can't pase like in ClipX,
- press short cut(cmd+shift+v) --> show some of recent clip items
- select direct one --> paste
