The difference between the `primary` and `secondary` clipboards is the very beginning of learning Linux.

If people find it confusing, make it an option during setup.

in reply to It's FOSS • • •I use the middle click paste all the time, and I would miss it. Since I use Plasma, I’m sure there would be a setting to turn it back on. Maybe there already is?
The middle click paste doesn’t use the same Clipboard as Ctrl-C, does it? It doesn’t seem to, but I’ve never really looked into it.
