Hi @pdavis86, tested the issue in several FF versions: nightly 71.0a1, beta 70.0b14, release 69.0.3 -> cannot reproduce. In my end on all versions the link from URL is successfully copied then pasted. Can you please send an about: support report?
Further, I will set a component, if isn't the right one please fell free to change it.
Regards,
Liviu

It doesn't happen on most sites. Only if that site is slow to respond to the initial GET. I've attached my about:support files
