Two-Finger Swipe to Trigger Clipboard

I love using Paste for managing my clipboard, but I think an even more intuitive way to trigger the clipboard could be introduced:

💡 Feature Request: Two-Finger Swipe from the Top Instead of relying solely on a keyboard shortcut, Paste could allow users to trigger the clipboard by swiping down with two fingers from the top of the screen. This would offer:

✅ Faster Access – No need to remember key combinations. ✅ Better Workflow – Especially useful for trackpad users who prefer gestures. ✅ More Intuitive – Similar to how many apps open quick access menus.

    We really need the ability to activate Paste by two finger swiping from top of the trackpad… and swiping up anywhere on the trackpad to close Paste.

    A haptic feedback upon activation would be sweet too.

    Right now i use BetterTouchTool to activate Paste by swiping down with 2 fingers from top of the trackpad, but it is far from perfect.

    That's a neat approach, Troid. Would love to see this feature implemented.
