If it helps, the vast majority of linux terminal emulators support rebinding ctrl-c to copy and ctrl-v to paste. Or simply copying to clipboard on select: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Copying_text_from_a_termina...

The default is usually ctrl-shift-c to copy and ctrl-c to send sigint - but setting the copy command to ctrl-c will usually flip them, making sigint ctrl-shift-c.

I enable this on basically all the terminals I use. I also immediately rebind cmd to ctrl in mac, since I can't stand the RSI inducing placement of the cmd key.

Ctrl-v was SIGINT long before it was a shortcut for paste (first added in Windows 3.1). Although it can be switched now, it hasn't always been so. Of all the things that desktops (I'm not going to say Linux, as it isn't a Linux issue as it affect every system that uses KDE/GNOME and the like) designed to run on top of *nix like systems that were copied from Windows, this one really boggles my mind.
