I use parcellite. Sensible UI, has all the functionality I need and it's not tied to any desktop environment.
The functionality I care about:

  • history, including customizable persistent entries
  • customizable key bindings
  • handles both primary and selection and can sync them
  • can trim whitespace
  • can launch customizable actions on the active entry

Selection buffer.

Unless you mean clipboard manager, in which case it'll depend on your desktop environment.

Yeah, I meant clipboard manager, I changed the title, thanks.

In that case gpaste (if you use Gnome). Before that parcellite was my preference, but around the transition to Wayland things broke for me.

If you're using gnome there's a really nice extension.

I like greenclip. Pretty minimal, makes a solid clipboard manager combined with dmenu (or rofi)
