I’m not judging, I’m genuinely curious whether anyone uses it. Because almost every text editor supports it yet when I use it, it’s just by accident and it messes up my document

    I use it when writing emails fairly often. I get all my thoughts out and realize the order isn’t how I’d like. At that point if I’m holding the mouse, why not.

        Because you’d have to move your mouse to the new position anyways to paste, so might as well save 1 button press by just click dragging instead

          Hmm…if it’s close, I’d just use my keyboard. If it’s far, I’d probably want the precision of the cursor anyway.
