Klipper was entirely a different program, process, etc. that was using the system tray. Nowadays it seems to be a plasmoid in the system tray. How can that be less of a UNIX philosophy than the Windows alternative? Because it's developed by the same community that makes the shell? That doesn't make sense to me.

Then it's not really an apt comparison as the two are comparable. I had assumed based on context we were talking about our of the box functionality from KDE, but if it's not, then KDE and Windows had equivalent lack of clipboard history without extra tools installed.
