    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.
