Show HN: Made a macOS utility that throws garbage styles out of your copy-pastes (smartpaste.app)

Looks an interesting app and does solve a pain point I encounter semi-frequently. I'm usually not one to comment on prices of applications, but $50/$100 for such a small utility is pretty steep. At 20 dollars I may even buy for it occasional use and not even think about it. At your prices I need to compare it to Affinity, kaleidoscope, littlesnitch and see if I derive a similar value from your application.
Thank you for the feedback!

I'll think about the price. So far people don't seem to mind the 50$ price, but we'll see if I get more pushback in the future. :)

SHIFT-COMMAND-OPTION-V
Shift-Command-Option-V = "Paste as Plain Text" = "Paste and Match Style" is a different thing.

It removes all styles completely.

SmartPaste keeps only the useful styles, so it's kind of a middle ground between regular Paste and Paste as Plain Text.
