Can't copy or paste text even with a clipboard manager (the ones in the Hyprland wiki)

I cant find anybody online with the same issue as me tho
I have no idea if its hyprland or wayland because it has never worked in any of my devices

timid lynx
#

so you CAN copy from the terminal but not with ctrl + c?

jade jolt
#

it seems to be corrupted or something tho

timid lynx
#

??

#

how so

jade jolt
#

it just spits out 20 lines of random unicode characters

#

when i paste

#

after copying

timid lynx
#

show screenshot

#

are you doing the thing i told and then just doing wl-paste?

jade jolt
timid lynx
#

yeah thats essentially trying to paste an image in the terminal

jade jolt
timid lynx
#

do uhhh

#

wl-copy ~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf

#

and wl-paste

jade jolt
#

aight

timid lynx
#

and show me the output

jade jolt
timid lynx
#

so wl-clipboard works

jade jolt
#

yeah kinda

timid lynx
#

can you use middle click to paste highlighted text?

jade jolt
#

i dont have middle button

#

im on a laptop

#

should i plug in a mouse?

timid lynx
#

mm

#

if you have one

jade jolt
#

yeah brb

timid lynx
#

im tryna see what does and doesnt work

#

because i wanna say its a keyboard issue but if you said ctrl works just fine

jade jolt
#

yeah

timid lynx
#

and obviously your c key is working

jade jolt
#

middle button pastes "home"

timid lynx
#

you said it doesnt work on anything?

#

including window

#

highlight a message and click the middle button

#

should paste it

jade jolt
#

wait i have to turn off a discord mod that i use for pasting then

#

its not very good but it kinda works]

#

OH

timid lynx
#

?

#

does it work?

jade jolt
#

OHHHH

timid lynx
#

???

jade jolt
#

sorry

#

discord didnt load messages

#

it works

#

tysm

timid lynx
#

ctrl c working?

#

or no

jade jolt
#

nope the mouse is working

timid lynx
#

ig thats a temporary fix

jade jolt
#

yeah

timid lynx
#

wb if you right click copy and paste

#

does that also work?

jade jolt
#

like from discord?

timid lynx
#

right click on almost anything should allow you to copy

jade jolt
timid lynx
#

as well as paste

jade jolt
#

only for text

timid lynx
timid lynx
#

but does it work in general is my question

jade jolt
#

i onlyhave the option to copy text tho

timid lynx
#

right click the chat box

#

this

jade jolt
#

yeah it only pastes the text for some reason

timid lynx
#

it cant paste an image?

jade jolt
#

nope

timid lynx
#

are you copying one of the ones i sent or a file

jade jolt
timid lynx
#

are you clicking copy text or copy image

jade jolt
timid lynx
#

you gotta right click the image specifically

jade jolt
timid lynx
#

weird

#

but it works

jade jolt
#

yeah

timid lynx
#

so you can copy paste just fine

#

its just ctrl c

jade jolt
#

bruh goddammit

timid lynx
#

its everything that ctrl c doesnt work on correct?

jade jolt
#

wtf

timid lynx
#

or is it just the terminal

jade jolt
#

now control c works

timid lynx
#

terminal is ctrl shift c btw

#

just in case you werent aware

timid lynx
jade jolt
timid lynx
#

yeah

jade jolt
#

ohhhhh

timid lynx
#

terminal is control shift c and control shift v

#

bc control c stops a process

#

so you're good now right?
