  2. Won't say about windows like but, did you checked ClipIt? ctrl+alt+h will give you a list and a systray icon for more options and configurations.

    enter image description here

    Update: ClipIt on Ubuntu 20.04 is broken. Patch is now merged to master branch and it was tagged as 1.4.5. Now it need to be packaged for Debian and Ubuntu. Until then use 1.4.2 version (from 18.04) or patched version from my ppa:
