Flycut, a very handy clipboard manager for Mac OS, has made copy pasting much more handy. It allows you to scroll back to the previously copied values (the amount of values kept in memory is configurable).

Sadly I haven't found an equivalent that does the same for Linux nor Windows forcing me to work with Mac OS 🙈

I use Clipy (another clipboard manager) something like every 15 seconds. Sadly, it's only MacOS too.

I use Alfred on macOS, which includes a clipboard manager that does that and Alfred also does a lot more. I severely underuse that software.

I use KDE Plasma, and it has a built-in clipboard manager.

I've used Gnome 2 and 3, Cinnamon, Openbox, LXDM, and probably others, and plasma 5 is seriously the most fantastic DE I have seen. If you haven't used it and would want to go back to Linux, do give it a try!
