On my computer, Copy is ok when I restarted , but it will fail after some hours.

This is the behaviour I'm experiencing too. I have noticed that sometimes, attempting to paste will completely freeze the application until I send a keyboard interrupt. I've had a few strange interactions between Emacs and my windows browser, where one side would hang until I interrupted the other.

It feels like whichever process handles the clipboard sharing is just stuck, and clients keep waiting for response since it didn't crash.

The wsl-windows clipboard sharing works fine for me until my laptop goes to sleep. After that the clipboards are isolated. Can't copy anything between windows and wsl.

Update: the clipboard bugs out after couple of minutes of restarting weston. Does anyone know where I can check logs for it?
