In their own words

Buddi

Buddi is a free budgeting program intended for people with little or no financial background. It lets users create accounts and categories, enter transactions, and review their spending habits. Project documentation shows a main budget window and reports including a net worth graph and income pie graph. Buddi runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows and is licensed under GNU General Public License version 2.0 (GPLv2). The project lists Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, Serbian, Spanish, and Swedish. A separate plugins project lists CSV and QIF import and export plugins. Older.buddi files require the Import Legacy Buddi Data plugin rather than the default.buddi3 format; older plugins may also require updates or recompilation after a version change. The latest listed version is Buddi-3.4.1.14, and stable files are dated 2019-04-03. The project describes Buddi Live as an online option available on mobile devices, though phones are difficult to use and tablets work better. Buddi costs nothing.

Clipy

Clipy is a free, open-source clipboard extension app for macOS. It opens clipboard history with a keyboard shortcut so you can choose an item copied earlier, and it provides a separate menu for saved snippets. Default shortcuts are Shift-Command-V for the main menu, Control-Command-V for history, and Shift-Command-B for snippets. Clipy supports clipboard formats including plain text and images. Clipboard history, snippets, preferences, and related data stay on the Mac. The project says copied contents are not transmitted to its servers or third parties. Firebase Analytics and Crashlytics are enabled by default but can be disabled in Preferences. Sparkle checks for updates. Clipy requires macOS 13 Ventura or later, is released under the MIT license, and accepts donations. macOS may require Accessibility permission for paste behavior.
