Copy on select and middle mouse button paste doesn't work in text fields created by js code in Firefox. I remember finding a stale bug report for it, but can't find it.
There are a lot of websites that use javascript to create text fields, some recent examples that I can remember right now:
I remember seeing lemmy maybe 4+ years ago on some open-source subreddit. It had practically non-existent user base, so I've ignored it. After that, I remember a first wave of people making mastodon accounts (even before elon). There I've first heard of concept of "fediverse". I liked the idea but I honestly thought it had zero chances to compete with mainstream social media.
And then everything turned to shit, making a gap between something like lemmy and reddit a lot smaller. So I've jumped the ship with everyone after the API shitstorm.
I believe for many companies, developers work on giant codebases with many hundred thousands or even millions of lines of code.
With such large codebase you have no control over any system. Because control is split between groups of devs.
If you want to refactor a single subsystem it would take coordination of all groups working on that part and will halt development, probably for months. But first you have to convince all the management people, that refactor is needed, that on itself could take eternity.
So instead you patch it on your end and call it a day.
For a lot of people Ubuntu is the linux. Canonical is just good at marketing.
For all it worth, Ubuntu is not the bad choice for average user who's not into ricing and not bothered by bloat.
Manjaro: haven’t you managed to kill it yet?
I've been using Arch and Manjaro for couple years each and in my experience they both break regularly. But, for some weird reason, Arch Linux is praised, when Manjaro is shamed upon.
