Cannot paste in WhatsApp web
Hi,
I cannot paste text (such as texts from Word-docs or links) while using the WhatsApp web application in Firefox. My ad-blocker for Firefox has been turned off, and all settings under the lock-logo are set on default. When I clear cookies and site date, it works for a while, but then stops working. It's quite annoying, since I use WhatsApp a lot, also for work related purposed, sharing links etc all the time.
Any idea what the problem is and how I could solve it?
Many thanks for helping out,
Sara

Not sure if you are having this issue with Firefox for iOS (for iPhone/iPad) where you posted this thread in or with Firefox on desktop like macOS
However Whatsapp is looking to deploy a fix on Monday.

There is no need to add any more comments to the Bug as it would likely be considered spam, especially comments like "I get this too" https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/page.cgi?id=etiquette.html
