This seems at odds with a password manager, though.
- gargravarr 10y agoIt's not about remembering passwords, it's for code snippets or URLs. I also find these invaluable.
- sillysaurus3 10y agoWhat I mean is, I'm constantly copying passwords to my clipboard, both to generate them and to input them. This is an app which remembers clipboard history. That means all my passwords will be stored in this history, which makes it incompatible for my use case. The documentation is less than clear about whether it can ignore apps: By default, Alfred ignores popular password applications like the macOS Keychain Access and 1Password, so that you don't inadvertently copy a password to your clipboard. I don't want to prevent apps from copying to my clipboard. I want to prevent Alfred from storing the history when I copy from a specific app (my password manager). I may as well just try it and find out, though.
- gargravarr 10y agoMy bad, sorry.
- sillysaurus3 10y agoOh, it's all good. I was mainly just wondering if anyone had any thoughts.
- mturmon 10y agoNot knowledgeable about this, but you raise an interesting point. The Alfred webpage says: "By default, Alfred ignores popular password applications like the macOS Keychain Access and 1Password, so that you don't inadvertently copy a password to your clipboard."
- greenhatman 10y agoI use CopyQ on Linux. You can set it up to ignore copies from your password manager. I have it currently set up to ignore KeePassX. https://hluk.github.io/CopyQ/ https://hluk.github.io/CopyQ/ https://superuser.com/questions/1112970/prevent-clipboard-manger-copyq-to-keep-data-from-keepass https://superuser.com/questions/1112970/prevent-clipboard-ma...
- mustpax 10y agoAlfred's clipboard manager will auto-exclude anything that's copied from 1Password. You can add more auto-exclude rules yourself too.
