@Bro666 @kde Is there a logical explanation why the clipboard history doesn't automatically paste the text into the last cursor position?

@Dariusmiles2123 @unix_joe I have a Librebooted Thinkpad X200s and even that is capable of being a daily driver.

The only reason you'd need newer than a quad-core intel 2nd/3rd is video edit and gaming. Probably heavy compiling too, but I haven't found them too slow.
