If related I am using https://userbase.kde.org/Klipper with KDE.

Also as discussed on Discord, I was able to successfully paste the image when I take the url, put it in the Ferdium navigation bar (I have that in “always visible mode”), right clicked, “Copy image”, and then came back using the back button in the navbar, pasted the clipboard contents there.

Interesting, I’m also experiencing this bug - also running Arch. So far I have only seen people using Arch Linux having this problem.

For the sake of completeness, my system information:

OS: Arch Linux x86_64 
Kernel: 5.18.12-zen1-1-zen 
Resolution: 1920x1080, 1920x1080 
WM: i3 
X.Org version: 21.1.4

And the package information:

Name            : ferdium-bin
Version         : 6.0.0.nightly.101-1

Copy and paste is working in all other services, only Discord is affected.
