Comment on What the Linux desktop really needs to challenge Windows
WhyJiffie@sh.itjust.works 4 days agoNo clipboard is just unusable.
there’s no “no clipboard”, what are you talking about? there’s been a clipboard in any OS since XP that I have used
security was never important apparently until windows 10 anyway
what? have you heard about 7?
As for the clipboard, kde applications can have a setting to say “this is a secret” and you can set to won’t clip.
I doubt that’s a setting, it’s just how it works. It’s not like it’s KDE specific behavior,even windows 10 is doing that.

Windows did not have a functional clipboard. Go look at all the complaints over the years.
**Windows historically had only a single-item clipboard and no built-in UI/history. **
A separate one shipped with MS Office that let you store something like 12 to 20 items. Why? Because windows sucked and DID NOT HAVE ONE.
Windows itself did not get a built in Win+V searchable/historical clipboard until windows 10.
Yes, better than XP, still not good. I am not going to do your homework, but Windows 10 was the first release that really focused on isolation, secrets management, and virtualization of applications for system wide and user protection.
Just as well, you don’t know what you are talking about anyways.
