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.

    Personally I didn’t have any problems with that yet fortunately.

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

    In X11 the bug doesn’t exist

      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.

      Is this on Fedora? My girlfriend had lots of similar issues on Fedora that disappeared on pop os.
