Any apps you guys love to use for viewing clipboard history on macOS? I’m looking for something simple—like Windows+V on a Mac—where you press a keyboard shortcut, the clipboard history appears, you choose one, hit return, and that’s it. A free and accessible alternative?

Re: Maccy
So, is Maccy definitely fully accessible?
It sounds useful so I thought I would give it a try. I can bring it up with Cmd+Shift+C, but then I'm finding browsing the list of items in the clipboard quite confusing. I can navigate to the list of items, but then I can't use up and down to move through the list. I can interact with it then use vo+up and down but then it seems to move around all over the place. How do you scroll through the different items properly?
Also if I try to access Preferences, the app just disappears.
The only other comparable thing I've used before is Cmd+Shift+V in PyCharm which lets you paste from the clipboard history. It seems quite a lot easier to use than Maccy.
copy Clip
This one works great for me:

CopyClip
Uninstalled Maccy and downloaded this.
So, can you use this without the mouse?
There's an icon in the Menu Extras bar, but I have to use VO+Cmd+F5 and VO+Shift+Space to move the mouse to it and click because it won't respond to VO+Space or VO+Shift+M or anything else I try.
Is there a keyboard shortcut I'm missing?
Maccy is perfectyl accessible
Just the settings panel is a bit weird but otherwise it's very, very good. In my opinion of course.
RE: Maccy
I'm probably not going to bother with it now, but I'm curious to know what I was missing. how do you scroll through the list of items in your clipboard history?
I think I was expecitng to press Cmd+Shift+C to whatever the shortcut is, and then be able to almost immediately arrow up and down through the list. Maybe it works if you are just searching and the search brings up one item.
ClipTools...
I use ClipTools; it sits in your status menus; and you can even use the keyboard shortcut comand+shift+m to bring the clipboard history; works well.
