Hey everyone,

Tired of juggling files between windows? Holdem gives you a tiny floating shelf to stash files mid-drag, just shake your mouse and drop ’em in, then pull them out when you need ’em. Think Dropover for Mac, but fully open-source and available on Windows.

Built with Tauri, it’s lightweight, private, and you can tweak it yourself: https://github.com/iamzubin/holdem
