Settings › General and Settings › Clipboard have grown too long to take in at a glance. Here they are as built (0.84.0), then three ways to regroup them. Each window is at Settings’ 520 pt width, and its height is under it. A window over 800 pt, about what a 13-inch MacBook Air (956 pt) leaves below the menu bar and above the Dock, is marked in Clay. The app’s own snapshots of today’s tabs run about 5% taller than these.

What each control is for, and how often it’s changed
Often (weekly or more): Quiet Mode. Its hotkey is on Shortcuts, two tabs away from it.
Sometimes: the chips’ switches, Check Now, Keep copies while the panel is closed.
Once, then rarely: Launch at login, Show in Dock, Keep panel in front, Menu bar icon, the #p0 dot, Appearance, Show fewer animations, the date format, relative dates, both Health thresholds, Latest copy in Today, Unindent by default and its mode, Clean Link’s list, Markdown styles, Save references to, the panel hotkey.
The Chips list is capped at 150 pt, so it scrolls inside Clipboard, and three chips’ options (Unindent’s mode, Markdown’s styles, Clean Link’s list) sit in groups of their own, away from the chip they change.
Recommendation: B
General keeps how the app runs: Launch at login, the panel (its hotkey, Keep in front), Quiet Mode with its hotkey beside it, Health, and Updates.
Appearance is new, second, as in macOS’s own apps: Appearance and Show fewer animations, then Menu bar and Dock (the icon, the #p0 dot, and Show in Dock, which the icon’s Hidden depends on), then Dates.
Shortcuts goes. Its two recorders join what they do, as the chips’ hotkeys did in 0.67.0, so the tab count stays at eight.
Clipboard’s chips hold their own options. Unindent, Markdown and Clean Link get a ▸ that opens their options under the row. Each chip is one line, its description now its tooltip (and in the help). The list is no longer capped, since it’s ten rows that don’t grow.
Every tab then fits a 13-inch screen without scrolling, with room for Updates to leave General for Licence in Phase 18.
