This is my issue with a lot of Linux distros they seem

aggravations is cut and paste I would very much rather it worked more
like it used to on X.
I don't know what we're doing differently, but am and have been using
what I know to be standard X11 primary selection buffer with middle
click to paste.
I do periodically use the actual clipboard in combination with the
primary selection buffer so that I can hold two things at once.
I've also started selecting content, copying the primary selection to
the secondary buffer for part of my workflow.
Aside: Is anyone aware of anything that uses the secondary selection
buffer.
