I don't know about that but I think we need two clipboards, standard. If we had the existing clipboard and a second with dedicated keys that would be very helpful.
I recently switched to Linux and I miss Win+V a lot. I keep pressing it expecting something to happen out of habit
I can do it on KDE!
Did you install something else? I'm using mint and I installed a clipboard manager but I haven't been able to bind it to win+v and also it doesn't work as well as the windows implementation
I think it's just a vanilla option, I have KDE on endeavorOS. It's not quite as smooth as the windows implementation but it's really nice to have
in a hyprland config i used to use win+v had a clipboard history thing pop up wherever your cursor was
I only have windows at work. What does this do is it like a clipboard manager?
Yes, if you enable clipboard you can access it with that shortcut
I love how the clipboard works on Android. It has a whole history you can copy a bunch of things and then select which instance you want to paste. I want that in Windows.
You can do that in Windows and on some Linux distro, at least on KDE. It might be a setting you have to turn on. Hit windows key + v to choose what to paste
That's been implemented many times on the Mac and Windows and Linux. It's generally referred to as a "clipboard manager", if you want a search term.
I'd also add that emacs has its own (more sophisticated) system, the "kill ring", and I'm sure that vi has an analog of some sort.
Linux has sort of two clipboards. There's the normal Ctrl-c/Ctrl-v one and also if you highlight a text you can paste that text using middle mouse button.
Yes! I use those all the time. It needs to be standard.
