Making the clipboard work across ssh sessions on Wayland

Ever tried copying code from SSH conn and ended up doing a “finger workout” in your keyboard? Me too

Recently I’ve given a crack into this “run agent in another machine thing”. At least for me, RAM is very expensive right now and my Thinkpad is strugling to keep up with it’s mere 16 GB.

But hey, I do have an older laptop with another 16 GB. It’s DDR4, but still works. Arch installed, ssh configured… And having to “Ctrl + Alt + Shift + select” to copy every time.
