## What it is
CrossPaste is a cross-platform desktop application that syncs clipboard content across devices in real time over the local network. It supports text, HTML, RTF, images, files, and more, with end-to-end encryption and a built-in clipboard history manager.

## Use cases
- copy on my PC and paste on my phone
- sync clipboard between mac and windows
- share files and images between devices over LAN
- keep an unlimited clipboard history with search
- private clipboard sync without a cloud server
- paste text across devices with keyboard shortcuts

## When to choose
- you want serverless, LAN-only clipboard sync with end-to-end encryption
- you need a unified clipboard manager across macOS, Windows, Linux, and Android
- you care about privacy and local storage of clipboard data
- you need rich content type support including files and images

## When to avoid
- you need clipboard sync across the internet or outside your LAN
- you require iOS support
- you want a cloud-hosted or centrally managed clipboard service
