Le 23 février 2026, GitHub a supprimé le dépôt Droppy

(github.com/iordv/Droppy) après avoir examiné un avis de retrait DMCA.

L'avis de retrait public est ici :

https://github.com/github/dmca/blob/master/2026/02/2026-02-10-atoll.md

Product Hunt a également examiné un dépôt DMCA séparé et a supprimé

le listing de Droppy.

Ce que le code source prouve

Il ne s'agit pas d'« inspiration ». Le code source de Droppy contient des

identifiants, noms de variables et modèles d'implémentation copiés directement d'autres projets.

De qui a-t-il été volé :

  • Ice (26 000+ étoiles, MIT) — code du gestionnaire de menu, identifiant .iceIcon laissé

dans le source

  • Atoll/BoringNotch (GPL) — 6 fichiers avec des implémentations identiques (c'est

le DMCA qui a tué le dépôt)

  • SaneBar (propriétaire) — gestionnaire de menu et fonctionnalités de barre flottante

  • Rectangle (28 000+ étoiles, MIT) — algorithme d'accrochage de fenêtres

  • Shottr (propriétaire) — interface de sélection de zone

  • Arc Browser (propriétaire) — fonctionnalité de capture d'élément

Il pourrait même y en avoir d'autres, ce sont juste ceux connus à l'heure actuelle.

Great (free)app and already replaced 5+ apps from my system (Drop Over, Clipboard, Speech to Text, Menu bar manager, others) and the developer is responsive, replies within hours on discord/reddit.

What is Droppy for macOS?

The ultimate Mac productivity monster. Free, open-source, and built entirely in Swift.

What's Droppy?

The native productivity layer macOS is missing.

Stop juggling single-purpose utilities. Droppy brings your clipboard history, file shelf, screenshot tools, and system HUDs together in one native interface—all living inside your notch.

No notch? Droppy adds a Dynamic Island-style pill to any Mac. The basics:

  • Shelf & Basket — Drag files to the notch to stash them. Jiggle your mouse while dragging to summon a floating basket anywhere on screen.
  • Clipboard History — Full history with search, favorites, OCR text extraction, and drag-out.
  • Native HUDs — Clean replacements for volume, brightness, battery, caps lock, and more.
  • Media Controls — Album art, playback controls, and a seek slider right in the notch.
