I have the same problem on Firefox under GNOME Wayland. AFAIK it's a common problem that sometimes happens under Wayland but I'm not sure about the details.
Thanks for your response. It probably works for me because of the environment variables defined in the env file, and I wonder if another one is required for chromium to work. So far I haven't found a satisfactory solution, other than open a plain text file in chromium to paste content from, which isn't ideal.
hm, I don't use Chromium, but could reproduce. I could copy-paste inside chromium, and actually from chromium to some apps, for example Telegram, Visual Studio Code.
I see with xeyes
that Chromium is running in X mode, Code as well, but Telegram is not....
BTW I tried Chrome and it works fine, so looks like Chromium misses some components.
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=986835
looks like Chromium is built with wayland support.
But who knows what bug is it: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/list?q=clipboard%20wayland
@jm2dev I would close this if you don't mind, that is bug for upstream (Chromium). Feel free to reopen,
I find impossible to copy/paste anything in chromium browser. It works fine (CTRL+C, CTRL+V, selection and mouse middle button).
I installed swaywm as instructed per the README file, on a vanilla opensuse tumbleweed system.
