<p>I can confirm this problem with Sway. Selected text can be only pasted within Geany. It doesn't even work with other Wayland native softwares, like Alacritty. A bug is already opened on Alacritty side :<br>
<a class="issue-link js-issue-link" data-error-text="Failed to load title" data-id="599786868" data-permission-text="Title is private" data-url="https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/issues/3592" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/alacritty/alacritty/issues/3592/hovercard" href="https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/issues/3592">alacritty/alacritty#3592</a></p>
<p>The same bug also applies with XWayland apps. For now, the only trick is to specify <code>GDK_BACKEND=x11</code> before launching Geany. Needless to say it is quite unpractical.</p>
