> FWIW if you're copying text on Android, you can tap the clipboard popup to edit the clipboard item before pasting it elsewhere.
I never noticed that after 13 years of Android. I checked that now and I could not find a way to do it. Samsung's keyboard has a way to look at the clipboard but I could not edit them. Swiftkey does not. Maybe Google's keyboard? It's not on my phone. I looked at a couple of videos but they don't look anywhere like my phone. Not a feature to invest much time on it. If I have to edit the clipboard and I can't do it where I want to paste it, I open an editor and paste it there.
I'm using stock Android, Pixel 8 Pro. Highlight text then tap "Copy". See a toast in the bottom left. Tap on it (not the X) and a little text editor applet opens up. Here you can edit the text and save it, updating the value in the clipboard. Then using Gboard, it has clipboard history so you can see and paste the specific recent item from the past hour that you want. (Unfortunately it can't be edited after initially copying although you can long press them in the Gboard menu to pin for longer or delete them).
