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.

It's not the same thing, it's much better, because you can have a shortcut for "clipboard backwards" and "clipboard forwards", which changes clipboard content based on the history of it.

In other words, if you want 3rd history item from the top, unlike on Windows, where you need to press Win+V, down, down, enter, here I press CTRL+W, W.

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.

+1 for Ditto. I think it is out of updates, but continue to work well.

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.

Go to Klipper → Configure Clipboard → Shortcuts

And set shortcut for "Next History Item" and "Previous History Item".

Believe me, it would be much better.

Configure WIN+A and WIN+S for example.

There's also Actions Configuration, where you can implement custom actions based on the clipboard contents in Win+V dialogue.

One of mine: if there's something resembling postal tracking number according to regexp, add "Print label" item which prints its barcode on my Bluetooth thermoprinter.

Windows (or at least, recent Windows 11) has that too!

Win+;

brings up the emoji picker (works on Windows 10 as well)
