Ditto VS diodon

The most famous is the clipboard one (https://ditto-cp.sourceforge.io/). I'd be surprised if they were referring to another "Ditto" software.

Ditto works well for me. If you have a cloud based file storage service like Google Drive or Dropbox, put the ditto database file in that folder and you'll also have an auto backup.

In case you are not aware: https://ditto-cp.sourceforge.io/

For example: the wonderful Ditto Clipboard Manager is both an old-style .msi installer here https://ditto-cp.sourceforge.io/, but it is also on Crapstore here: https://apps.microsoft.com/store/detail/ditto-clipboard/9NBLGGH3ZBJQ?hl=en-us&gl=us

I highly recommend you use a clipboard monitor. I use Ditto (download link, Windows store link). It can help diagnose problems like this by letting you see the contents of the clipboard (using <`> after copying something.

I’ll use the opportunity to recommend Ditto. A great clipboard manager that also allows for easy pasting as plain text, white space removed, linefeed cleanups and more.

Looks like some sort of clipboard manager? I use Ditto, it's free I think and you can customize it to do all sorts of things with text/images you copy to the clipboard. https://ditto-cp.sourceforge.io/

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.
