Hi Everyone,

Let me begin by stating that CachyOS is incredible and I am LOVING being off Windows. All my games work, my brokerage desktop client works, and I have run into no issues installing anything I want/need so far (fingers crossed).

That being said, PLEASE help me disable middle-click paste on my mouse! This is the most annoying and frustrating thing. I am pasting blocks of text, screenshots, and nonsense EVERYWHERE. I have disabled it in general settings. I have installed xmousepastblock as a service:

paru -S xmousepasteblock-git

mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user

nano ~/.config/systemd/user/xmousepasteblock.service

I have pasted this into the .service file:

[Unit]
Description=Disable middle mouse button paste (primary selection)

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/xmousepasteblock
Restart=always

[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

and I have started the service and rebooted using:

systemctl --user enable --now xmousepasteblock.service

And it STILL happens.

What are the next steps? This is the only thing bugging me about CachyOS

Thanks for your help!
