Hey, I’m Deepender - solo maker.
I got tired of Win+V: copy, switch window, hunt history, paste. Then again for a screenshot into Photoshop.
Edge-Drop is a hover shelf on the Windows screen edge. The desktop stays click-through until your cursor hits the edge. Then you drag the thing out native Windows drop, not fake paste.
Free, Apache-2.0, Windows 10/11. Store and GitHub both work.
What’s the copy/paste motion that still wastes your time?
for me it's writing a bug report - I copy 3 or 4 screenshots in a row while I still have the context in my head, but the OS clipboard only holds one, so I end up pasting after every single copy instead of just gathering everything and dropping it all into the doc at the end. a shelf that holds multiple items until I'm ready would fix that. does the shelf let you drag out several items in one go, or is it still one paste per item?
Screenshots are what break my flow, since I copy one and lose it to the next copy. Do pinned items survive a restart or does the shelf reset?
