Is it me or does disabling this option do nothing. Middle clicking still pastes previous text selection.

try disable any sort of Clipboard manager program that's hiding in the systray area (for good) in addition to that setting pictured above.

I heard that middle click paste is a part of Xorg

#

But there was a toggle in settings to disable it

#

Though it doesnt do anything

#

Its quite annoying because my trackpad has a builtin middle-click, which can be accidentally triggered

First input all devices and add their IDs

#

@trail solar

#

xinput list

#

And to disable pasting
xinput set-button-map <device ID> 1 0 3

Replace device ID with your mouse id
"The 0 will disable pasting"
Tag me if you still have the problem
