1. Screenshot -text area

textarea is only text, does not contain format, I think it is expected.

2. Screenshot - content editable

I don't have an account on totallympics.com, so I did not test it.
But I tested the copied data on https://html-online.com/editor/, Chrome almost behaves the same, only some indention and alignment is different.
Could you help to confirm Chrome's behavior on totallympics.com? Thanks.

Hi, confirmed, it's the same on Chrome with both sites. As in chrome when pasting seems to paste at another font size.
Should we close this?
