The thing is that I'm not experiencing this clipboard issue on Plasma, but on a fresh installation of Void Linux with niri. There are reports of this issue all over[1][2][3], so it's clearly not an isolated problem. The frustrating thing is that I wouldn't even know which project to report it to. What a clusterfuck.

I can't go back to X11 since the community is deliberately killing it. And relying on a fork maintained by a single person is insane to me.

Re X11 maintenance... I think it's mostly "done" and doesn't really need a lot of work. So not sure I see a problem there.

Far from it. The recent XLibre release[1] has a long list of bugfixes and new features.

Besides, isn't the main complaint from the Wayland folks that X11 is insecure and broken? That means there's still a lot of work to be done. They just refuse to do it.

To be fair, X11 has worked great for me for the past ~20 years, but there are obvious improvements that can be made.
