Personally I consider clipboard managers to be a must-have.<p>I often need to go back to something I copied 30 minutes ago etc.<p>Plus they're like a mini browser history, holding your links.<p>Which one do you use? Or why aren't you using one?<p>I use https://github.com/madprops/clipton
I use Ditto (<a href="https://ditto-cp.sourceforge.io/" rel="nofollow">https://ditto-cp.sourceforge.io/</a>). It uses about 5MB Ram and lets you expire clips.
I'm not using one!<p>I usually copy something only in the moment and immediately "clear" my clipboard by CTRL + C'ing a single character from some textbox/selectable field :-)<p>For me, it's not a buffer but just a line of communication between two programs. When I have tried to treat it like the former I have found that mistakes are common and the benefits are very slight.
