CopyQ VS diodon

Try CopyQ https://github.com/hluk/CopyQ

Great to hear :)

Re: a new clipboard app, often people recommend CopyQ, which is cross-platform: https://github.com/hluk/CopyQ

There are some really really good open source clipboard libraries like https://github.com/hluk/CopyQ . I'd love to see a more cross-platform version.

It's shocking to me how much user-agency I feel like I could get from better control over my clipboard. Whether I want to turn a url into an archive.today/ url or remove crappy tracking links, or whether I want to send a url to another device, or share it... Having a history of things I've copied. The clipboard is weirdly the one interstitial system left standing in computing, and everything else is siloes and isolation. I'd love to see more and more work to make good open source explorations here.

Does anyone know if clipboard managers are possible in Android? I'm vaguely under the impression that by design this is a capability reserved for the keyboard one is using. I'd love to be wrong here.

/u/MaxGaav CopyQ looks like it has an editor. Doesn't look as polished as Copy 'Em I think, which is new to me. That looks great.

I thought otherwise, given that "Unlimited history" is literally CopyQ's most thumbs-upped issue: https://github.com/hluk/CopyQ/issues/510

At https://github.com/hluk/CopyQ/issues/27 the topic Wayland is covered. There are also a few solutions mentioned that you can use temporarily.

I use CopyQ ... It's very good.

https://github.com/hluk/CopyQ Looks like what you are after. Haven't used it myself, but the drag 'n' drop feature you're specifying looks to be supported.

CopyQ my dude

There are Ditto and CopyQ. They don't show you a list of paste-able items via right-click context menu though, but you can open a list of paste-able items by clicking the icon in your task bar in the bottom right corner.

There's no OOTB clipboard manager. Best one is Diodon so far (icon is kinda ugly, though).

TL;DR

So much cognitive load.

Just configure Vim to put everything you delete in your clipboard and use a clipboard manager like diodon[1] with 1000 items.

Of course works also outside of Vim, you just have to copy the part you might want to reuse before deleting/modifying.

For me, diodon> all clipboard extensions because it doesn't take up space in the app indicator bar (small screen on laptop). It behaves like the window 10's super v clipboard if you set the shortcut to super v.

You could always give Diodon a try.
