Weird pasting thing - DuckDuckGo on Android
Comments
I've had the same, but also in Chrome and Edge on a PC and laptop.Sporky said:Hello! In the last few weeks I've encountered a strange thing when trying to paste into the quoting box.
If I try to paste into a new line, that line is removed and the pop-up that lets me choose paste disappears.
My workaround is to make 3 or 4 new lines and paste into the middle one, then tidy up.
I do not have the same issues on other sites using tye same tablet/browser.
Doesn't happen so much with pasting text, but nearly always with pictures or internet links.
And like you, I hit return a few times, paste when the "paste" option appears, then delete the extra lines.
Come to think of it, I think it's mostly when pasting links. YouTube ones, for example.
Exactly. And I agree that it's only started happening the last few weeks, it's definitely a new phenomenon.
