can I recall items I cut and Paste in the past


hello everyone

i am aware of the history command in the linux shell terminal. What about when using the desktop GUI, is there a way I can recall items I cut & pasted to my web browser in the past. Looking forward for any help.

Just figured it out. KDE has a sissor icon at the task bar called clipboard contents. All previously items I cut and pasted is there.

Most, if not all, desktop environments have a default clipboard manager, and there are others that you can install. Chrome browser has a clipboard extension available, and you can sync it across all your chrome instances. Not much security, but it works if you're careful about what you save to it.
