  • Always paste without formatting on macOS
    Right, it’s in Powertoys, and alternatively this works well: https://stevemiller.net/puretext/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
  • Learn AutoHotKey by stealing my scripts
    For the record, it's also available without AutoHotKey, using Powertoys [1] or PureText [2]. Very useful. [1] https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/ [2] https://stevemiller.net/puretext/. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago
  • Is there a person who doesn't agree with this?
    I use https://stevemiller.net/puretext/ It's also on the windows store if your IT has you somewhat locked down but still able to access the store. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Is there a person who doesn't agree with this?
    You can have it everywhere with either Powertoys or https://stevemiller.net/puretext/. Source: about 1 year ago
  • PowerToys Release v0.68.0 with Paste as plain text (Win+Ctrl+V) and Mouse Jump
    I've been using PureText for years to paste as plain text, but it's good to see this functionality is part of PowerToys now. Source: over 1 year ago

  • pushbullet website
    I can't access anymore the pushbullet.com from my computer. I tried with chrome, firefox. Source: 12 months ago
  • A couple questions about the Firefox extension
    Ah I see. Opening a tab isn't a problem, it's just that it opens pushbullet.com instead of https://www.pushbullet.com/#devices to see the text directly. I came up with a workaround with the "Redirector" extension that replaces the url. Source: almost 1 year ago
  • Not running on PC?
    Same issue. I have uninstalled (Revo) and installed 5 times and still can't get Pushbullet to work. Now it seems I have to got to pushbullet.com to read and send SMS, instead of doing it local on my PC with Windows 10. Seems to have happened in last 2 days. I can use it via internet access, but what happened to local functionality??? Source: about 1 year ago
  • Pushbullet.com synching SMS but Chrome extension is not.
    I go to the pushbullet.com web site and they are all there as they should be. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Large chunks of history missing, File push not possible anymore
    Further when I go to pushbullet.com it doesn't show my recent devices. Although it does show it to me over the pushbullet icon in the toolbar. There are large gaps in my push history on pushbullet.com. Source: about 2 years ago
