Please read again: Firefox is copying text AND format, its up on the receiver to rip format and use plain text only.Surely all copied text should be plain text? What possible reason could there be to allow non-plain text to enter the clipboard? That's just opening up the web for abuse? People surely want to see what they're copying and know what they're copying. The clipboard is a simple tool. It seems like Firefox is trying to turn it into something more complicated, for no apparent reason?
you need an extension to get plain text from firefox.
this is and was regular behavior since minimum 2014
