The Mac Shortcut at https://github.com/e-kotov/macos-shortcuts lets you select a particular area of the screen (as with Cmd-Shift-4) and copies the text out of that, allowing you to copy exactly the text you need from anywhere on your screen with one keyboard shortcut. Great for popups with unselectable text, and copying error messages from coworkers' screenshares.
