Were there any nominees that acknowledged that the election was lawful?

As I wrote, it could be integrated into Photos. Or they could make a Clipboard app that integrates it. Apple isn’t foreign to turning OS-wide functionality into apps, like Files and Passwords and Preview. There’s also functionality made sta

I disagree. It was annoying to always have to delete the screenshot photos that you really only wanted to have on the clipboard to paste somewhere, or only wanted to extract text out of. I was very pleasantly surprised when the new options
