Among the Firefox Wayland bugs, one of the top crash bugs is over a lost connection to a Wayland compositor. For dealing with it is to have a proxy between Firefox and the Wayland compositor to cache messages and prevent compositor message queue overflows.

    My bigger problem right now is a bug that prevents me from copying stuff from the url bar when middle-click pasting is enabled in the KDE settings…

    What. For me it’s the opposite - I can’t copy stuff to other apps from Firefox if that setting is not enabled

      Yeah sorry. I was half asleep while I wrote this. That is the problem I have as well.

      One workaround I found is to use the separate search bar (if you have it enabled) as a buffer.

      When I copy the URL I can paste it into the search bar but nowhere else. If I copy the search bar I can paste it everywhere just fine

        Ah. For me it’s not the search bar only but also if I select text and press Ctrl+C/press context menu Copy as well.
        Interestingly, if sites put something in the clipboard (eg. Mastodon toot Copy link button) it works anywhere else.
