I use [kitty](https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/) as my terminal, which allows you to map a key for copying any text from the screen to the keyboard. The text is selected by pressing some hint keys, similar to the Vimium extension. It's quite [flexible](https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/kittens/clipboard/) but I mostly use "copy line" and "copy word".

This *just works* with clipboard managers like CopyQ, courtesy of Kitty supporting modern clipboards. This is not specific to vim, it's a general feature for anything that runs in the terminal, which vim happens to be. It's convenient enough that I haven't bothered setting up the vim clipboard integration since it stopped working a while ago.
