From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I use Parcellite on Mint. It works pretty good for me.

i gave it a shot a while back, but it caused the whole os to crash frequently

You could probably install one from the package manager.

diodon works exactly how I wanted it and no less. I've mapped Super+V to it as well and disabled the applet icon

so far working well. only missing feature is the ability to pin something permanently, but not that important
