Details

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Copy a text (and check that it is actually copied)
  2. Close FIrefox

Actual results:

Can no longer paste copied text after closing firefox

Expected results:

Should be able to past copied text even after firefox is closed

PS: problem started in the last couple of months. I'm always using the last stable version.

System:
Arch Linux, kernel 5.10 LTS, with Gnome Shell 41 on Wayland

Forgot something: this problem happens even on safe mode ("firefox --safe-mode" on a terminal)

Hello Andre,

Either by pasting the copied text on the address bar or on a text editor (gedit). It works while Firefox is still open. After closing Firefox, I can no longer paste it on the text editor or anywhere else.
