My muscle memory is very ingrained with Cmd + Shift + 4 to take screen snips, and this has been fine for a while.
However, from now on, I don't need to save my screen snips as files. I need to paste them directly to various places (e.g. online, or in documents).
How do I make Cmd + Shift + 4 save to clipboard instead of files (like Windows with Win + Shift + S)? My fingers are unable to grasp the concept of Cmd + Ctrl + Shift + 4 (that's just too many keys).
Ideally, and tl;dr, I'd like to swap the functionality of Cmd + Shift + 4 and Cmd + Ctrl + Shift + 4.

You can set them to anything you like, so long as it doesn't conflict with any existing command.
