Is there an alternative to Everything [1](file search with immediate results) and Ditto [2](clipboard manager) among those you've listed ? I can't live without them on Windows to be honest.

I use clipdiary instead of Ditto and share the Db across using a filesync for a eternal and shared clipboard history.

The main site is http://softvoile.com/

Clipdiary is https://clipdiary.com

Though my db syncing doesn't always work like a charm, it still gets the job done. Use the freeware version which should be super sufficient for most of the users.

Checkout other tools which are good such as Flashnote.

I use AstroGrep but it scans the drive, rather than indexing it (find vs. locate)

Listary is a good ui for full text search, and integrates with the default file dialogs nicely too.

Dammit, I forgot about VoidTools. Ditto looks interesting.
