Need advice for multidesktop use.
For years we'd just click on blank space of the target window or use CMD+Tab / CMD+` to work in conjunction with mouse, for more consistent behavior. But if you want the app window under your cursor to gain focus automatically, try this: https://github.com/synappser/AutoFocus

Help me find a new name for AutoRaise
Stefan Post kindly asked me yesterday to rename AutoRaise to avoid a name clash with his Autoraise.

Slicing Through the Layers of the Desktop
It's AutoRaise a focus-follows-mouse app. I was using Yabai for this focus-follows-mouse effect but this is miles ahead because it also extends the Desktop (watch this video to understand what is meant by this amazing workflow) and does not require SIP disabled. I can't live without it anymore. :)

Implementing acceptsFirstMouse behavior
Not exactly the solution, but you can use u/Synappser AutoRaise app to auto-focus on the window under the cursor and hit the click on first try. Link to the reddit post.

AutoRaise - A Focus-Follows-Mouse Implementation on Steroids
Oh, I like this idea! Please submit it as feature request. Thank you.
Indeed, you have different "nuances" in the focus-follows-mouse implementations. The "raise", the "focus", and the "sloppy focus". AutoRaise currently implements the "raise" behaviour. Would you be interested in other behaviours? In which case would you like to post a feature request to the issues page with your scenario? :)

Always paste without formatting on macOS
I have been using [Jumpcut](https://github.com/snark/jumpcut) for this purpose. I have it bound to ctrl cmd v, so it doesn't conflict with the normal cmd v

Finally found the best media player
It’s the only clipboard manager I’ve ever used, but I like Jumpcut. It’s free: https://snark.github.io/jumpcut/

Double click to copy, middle click to paste
I personally use Raycast (an app/URL/everything launcher) that has a clipboard manager included. It’s free app, and really great if you want to control your Mac via keyboard. But if you’re not into that sort of thing, there’s various clipboard managers available: Pastebot, Maccy, Copy 'Em, Jumpcut.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing AutoFocus and jumpcut you can also consider the following projects:
AutoRaise - AutoRaise (and focus) a window when hovering over it with the mouse
PopClip-Extensions - Source code extensions in the official PopClip Extensions directory.
