TIL GNU/linux has 2 clipboards
Pretty sure most of you already know this but for those who don't: you have two clipboards in Linux. One is the traditional clipboard where you copy with control c and paste with control v. The other one is when you highlight text and use the mouse middle click to paste text.

Is it possible to have have a Windows 10-like clipboard in Mint? Where you can copy multiple stuff with ctrl+c and then press super+v to have a dropdown of things that you copied with a possiblity to pin some of them?

And probably more. Anything than can be done in Windows was available in Linux 10 years earlier.
Klipper on KDE offers a clipboard history. Don't know about other DEs.
What your talking about is called a clipboard manager, and there are tons of them out there. All with varying features.
qlipper is the one I use the most
