Before using Clipy, I tried tools like Loom, OBS Studio, VEED, and ShareX.
Most of them were either too complicated, heavy, or had important features locked behind paid plans. Clipy felt much simpler and faster for quick screen recordings, which is why I preferred it.
Thanks, Vicky. "Free without unnecessary complexity" is exactly the bar we're trying to hold β no paid tier, no feature gates, just the recorder. Glad it felt that way in practice. If you ever hit something that feels more complicated than it should, treat that as a bug and flag it β that's how we keep it simple.
