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.

I use auto scroll a lot, middle click paste is generally an immediate no for me.
How do middle-click-to-paste and middle-click-to-scroll conflict? In Firefox I can click-to-paste if the cursor is over an input field and click-to-scroll anywhere else. Never had any problem with this behavior.
Some of us are clumsy.
That's not something I thought about. Good thing that you can disable the feature then
How did you setup auto scroll? It doesn't work for me.
You can't in most apps but Firefox allows it. It requires an app to specifically enable the behavior instead. It's terrible.
