  2. @FreakyFwoof I have a quick question about #Clipman, specifically syncing. I have #iCloudForWindows installed on both my DellVastro5620 & #BrailleNoteEvolve. On my #iPhone16ProMax, #M2MacbookAir &#M4iPadPro, I have Clipman set to sync with dropbox. Is there an easy way I can move my stuff to iCloud & just use that? Your documentation states that its slower but its actually nearly instantaneous for me. Although, I just realized that I'll need to use #Dropbox if I want to use the app on my #Slint machine, which is a version of #Linux developed specifically for those of us who are #Blind or #VisuallyImpaired & is based on #Slackware. Thanks for any info you can provide & certainly thanks for creating this wonderfull little application!
