Details
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:124.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/124.0
Steps to reproduce:
Dragging and dropping text/links from Telegram to Firefox address bar or new tab results in hard mess (unidentified symbols). I believe it must be something related to the encoding.
I tried drag and drop to a terminal and other programs and the text drops as it's supposed to be.
I tried drag and drop from other programs to Firefox and the text is also as it's supposed to be.
First I thought the fault was in Telegram but then I tried dragging and dropping text from Telegram to other apps and it seems to be alright.
This behaviour can be observed on a stable (not bleeding edge) Linux kernel. Snap is purged, Firefox with snap is purged too so I just use apt:
https://packages.mozilla.org/apt mozilla/main
Actual results:
Chinese symbols appear

Expected results:
The text I dragged should appear

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::DOM: Copy & Paste and Drag & Drop' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Dragging and dropping text/links from Telegram to Firefox address bar
How to do that? I cannot drag anything "out" of Telegram under Wayland.

Yep, I didn't specify on purpose. That's all I could help you with. I'll live with the bug until I figure out why it happens or someone figures before me and it eventually gets fixed.
I tried to reproduce this bug on Kubuntu, but I cannot with the preinstalled Firefox nor Nightly build built by myself.
jordanov.borislav: Which distribution do you use? And can you reproduce this with a beta build which is directly built by mozilla?
