Select text to copy. Middle click to paste.

I never realized that was why people used the primaey clipboard on Linux...

But I'll be frank : fuck that. I'd rather disable it entirely and stop having to deal with random text pasting in bad places when I'm using the touchpad

What wonky touchpad makes that a problem?

You could use shift -insert instead I suppose.
