While I'm not completely closed to the idea of increasing potential capacity of the clipboard history (search performance implications aside), I'd like to understand when 3 months of text isn't enough.

If you use an item from the clipboard history, it moves to the top of the list, effectively resetting the 3 month timer on that item. So really, the 3 month limit is "items in the clipboard history which I haven't used in the last 3 months".

But for time to time (and this happens more than i'd expect), I find myself searching in clipboard some text I know i copied some time ago. This might be some sql script i was working on some time ago, or some shell command.. It's not frequently used 'snippet', its just some text, that now i have to google again.

For example couple of months ago I was working a lot with docker so I copied&pasted docker commands a lot. It didn't have value for me to create snippet for docker at that time because it was in my history all the time. But then i switched projects. And now, I occasionally need to exec some command in docker and i know i should have that command somewhere in the clipboard history but it's not there anymore. Now I might create snippet for that text (since apparently I will be using it probably more often), but I don't want to create snippets for such texts in advance..

Another case is that couple of months ago i was working on some sql script. Now i need something similar so I just want to search it in the clipboard history, paste and refactor it. Again - I don't think that this is the case for snipped. I will create snippet for it once i see that I use it too often. But I don't know that in advance.

With this option, there's less friction in storing a snippet (which also has the benefit of it being synced/backed up if syncing is enabled) without the risk of storing an infinitely ballooning clipboard history database.

Why not use snippets? I do. But the point of the forever history for me is to retrieve things I didn't know I needed to make a snippet. "What was that long command I ran on server X last year? I can't access the server but I know I copied it at least once.. it started with.. that's it!" This doesn't happen every day, but it does happen periodically. I've pulled long-ago copied data out of my Ditto clipboard history many times. Sometimes I even need to browse through dozens of results, eg if I'm looking for a phone number I thought I'd only need once, and all I have to search for is the first two digits, 07. But I can very often work out the right entry by looking at the date it was copied.

The important thing is that I have the option, and in practice I've found it very useful. I don't want to have to think, every time I copy something, "should I make this a snippet just in case I need it in 9 months?" And more often or not I have no idea that I'll need it again, until I do. I have my shell history (Bash and ZSH) set to never truncate for exactly the same reason, and that is regularly invaluable.

If there's some technical limitation - Alfred gets really slow when there's too much history, perhaps? - then just put a warning up and let us take our own chances with it. But if you're using SQLite or similar I really can't imagine there'd be a problem - it's certainly not for Ditto, which searches a huge DB just fine.

At the moment I am regularly checking every new clipboard manager that I discover to see if it can replace this part of Alfred, and give me the forever history that I want. I just wish I didn't need to and could forget about it and just always use Alfred, which is perfect in most every other way.

It doesn't matter if setting the maximum clipboard history makes searching the clipboard history slower, this is, after all, the user's prerogative. The fundamental issue is more about maintaining an extremely large full text index on inserting new text data every single time you cmd+c, leading to higher idle CPU usage (and potentially lower battery life).

Alfred is intrinsically extremely lightweight, so before providing a longer clipboard history, a number of architectural changes would have to happen. For example, one solution could be to automatically archive data every week into a different "long term" store. This would allow Alfred's day to day usage to be extremely fast and low resource use, while providing access to those "every so often" needed items you copied 2 years ago.

So while I do understand and respect you wanting to absolutely ensure performance and scalability, my personal experience is that other clipboard managers are able to handle it fine using the same DB backend as you use, and without needing to archive to multiple, date-based tables. If anything I would have thought it would be easier in Alfred, given its (smart) distinction between Text and Image.

Anyway I don't mean to tell you your business. I'm pleased to hear that it's on your radar, even if we do have to wait a bit longer. I lost all my prior clipboard history when I came back to my Mac after >3 months away, so I'm starting from scratch. But that does mean that if the new release happened within the next 3 months, it wouldn't make any difference to me anyway

Another way to help this issue is to have multiple stores each with a regular expression for putting clipboard history items into it and a special keyword to search in that store. That way, you can have one store for sql commands, one for websites, one for pictures, etc. Each having a regular expression check that automatically places that item into that store. Then, the user can use a keyword for searching in that store and a super keyword that searches all stores. But keep the default one to search just the standard clipboard history. I think that would give the flexibility that everyone would need, but keep the main clipboard history small enough to not bog down Alfred.

I use Clipboard History as a general buffer for everything in my life,

and losing everything beyond 3 months is a frequent source of headache.

Here's a small sample of a few recent things I've lost due to history expiring:

For now I just periodically back up `~/Library/Application\ Support/Alfred/Databases/clipboard.alfdb`

to a separate folder, and merge the rows in it with a main database. This at

least allows me to query further back by querying the merged database directly.

Maybe I'll build a workflow to do that if I have time, but no promises.

Full source: alfred-clipboard.sh (it's a fully functional infinite-history solution for Alfred, with backup, search, exporting, etc.)

One thing I want to try is periodically overwriting the Alfred internal db with my merged one,

that way I can accumulate infinite history without Alfred attempting to expire anything.

In theory it should work fine, I'll probably update my script to do that sometime in the next week.

One thing I cant figure out though is the format of the timestamps (e.g. `584601195`), they're not valid UNIX timestamps,

(Now I just have to convince the Google Chrome team to also allow storing

browser history longer than 3 months... then the two biggest sources of

data-loss pain in my life will be eliminated).

I made a Workflow out of it, unfortunately the ergonomics are really bad because Alfred doesn't expose the clipboard-style preview pane UI to Workflows. With script filter output you can only display short snippets in the list. Without the longer preview, it's really hard to tell which matches are correct and I found it next to useless.

Have you ever considered where the copied texts are stored on your phone? Or do you want to change the text before pasting it elsewhere? All the copied content on your Android phone goes straight to the clipboard. And yes, you can edit it too.

This article aims to provide a comprehensive guide on how to view clipboard history on Android. You'll learn a variety of proven solutions to see and edit Clipboard history on your phone, regardless of the Android version you're using.

A clipboard is a space on your phone that temporarily stores information for a short time. The clipboard feature is used when you want to copy or cut something and paste it somewhere else. When you copy text or an image, it gets stored in the clipboard. Not only can you view clipboard history on Android, but you can also edit whatever you have copied as needed.

Unfortunately, the clipboard can store copied content for an hour before it gets overwritten and lost. This means you might lose the copied text if you accidentally overwrite it with new text, photos, or anything. And that's the key reason why people wish to see clipboard history on Android.
