GitHub allows for copying git links with ui element under 'Code' button. When I click it, I can paste in terminal with with rightclick->paste, but not with Shift+Insert. If I copy the link manually with Ctrl+C, it can be pasted with Shift+Insert. This double clipboard behavior is extremely frustrating, so I would like to get rid of it completely and just use one clipboard everywhere.

1Why don't you just paste by using the middle mouse button? Doesn't that work? – terdon Jun 02 '21 at 15:59

Take the good habit of pasting into the terminal with Ctrl+shift+v. That always works.
You can also use the shortcut Ctrl+shift+c to copy from the terminal.
