Do the alternatives not work as well?

Use keyboard shortcuts in case the buttons on the web page or other methods aren't working.

  • Copy: Ctrl+C or Ctrl+Insert (Mac: Command+C)
  • Paste: Ctrl+V or Shift+Insert (Mac: Command+V)
  • Cut: Ctrl+X or Shift+Delete (Mac: Command+X)

Try the Firefox version from the official Mozilla server if you currently use a version from the repositories of your Linux distribution.
