Review of "Wayland Paste" version 1.0 (1)

Details Page Preview

A clipboard history manager for GNOME Shell on Wayland, providing the same workflow as Diodon: it keeps a searchable history of recent clipboard (and primary-selection) entries, shown from a mouse-driven top-bar menu with type-to-filter search. Selecting an entry copies it back to the clipboard and, with instant paste enabled, types Ctrl+V into the previously focused window using GNOME Shell's in-process virtual input device, so no Remote Desktop permission dialog appears. Per-application paste shortcuts (for example Shift+Ctrl+V in terminals), a content filter, image entries, and clipboard/primary synchronization mirror Diodon's settings. Works on GNOME 45-50.
