It's lightweight and simple. Does it's job perfectly without bothering you. In my mind it's the definition of a utility and what a utility should do.

I can vouch for the quality and effectiveness of this app. Does its job perfectly and it's very unobtrusive and reduced in features so as not to bog your computer down. You can also set applications to ignore from its operation.

Be careful what you paste into a terminal. Check what a command installs before running it.

What is Yoink?

Yoink simplifies drag and drop between windows, apps, spaces and fullscreen apps.

When you start dragging a file in Finder or content from an application, Yoink fades in a tiny window at the edge of your screen so you can drag to it. This frees up your mouse so you can comfortably navigate to the destination of the drop and resume the drag from Yoink's window.
