KDE ships klipper by default which is the same thing and works fantastically. Supports multimedia and is fast, I only wish it had a cli tool instead of having to use xclip or qdbus. On windows I find ditto much more performant than the native clipboard manager.

I use sway so just made a bash script that's a couple of lines to join cliphist, tofi, wl-copy, wtype, together to the same effect.

Holy crap I've been using KDE for years and I didn't know about Meta+V.

I'll pay it forward by sharing another shortcut: Meta+. for emoji picker.

Specifically for GNOME there are numerous extensions where at least one of them can be assigned hotkeys for: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/779/clipboard-indicat...

The emoji and symbol picker on Windows 10 has type-to-search for emojis but not for symbols. It's such an annoying restriction. It's quicker to find and copy symbols from the web than trying to find them in the picker.

I don't know if Windows 11 is the same, but I hope this software hasn't copied it if it is.

I didn't even know super+v on Windows. Not to sound all entitled about opensource software but can we get a screenshot on GNOME? Maybe on both?

ClipTools - also does not show images but works good enough and is free.

CopyClick, which shows the full history in the status bar.

Main difference is that Win+V on windows also shows images/screenshots that you copied, while CopyClick only shows text.

is this caching of copied data encrypted at all?

Yeah, I do wonder how this works for those copying keys and other private strings around. I'd rather they disappear on the next ^c than be pushed into an array somewhere, or worse, stored on disk.
