I highly recommend getting a clipboard manager! They keep a (usually configurable) history of your most recent clipboard items and allow switching the active selection between them.
The difference is now I know git and text editor with hot-save support; with mostly textual clipboard, the texts usually just land in either git/editor.
- Draw Chinese characters into a translator
- Just have every website support every language ever
- Install cliboard manager software to handle the fact you don’t always want to copy
Gotta love HN.
