Other relevant information: Unable to test previous appimages as they crash on startup (possibly https://github.com/pyfa-org/Pyfa/issues/2667) so not sure when this started.
The below appears in the terminal when running Pyfa with --debug.

Can confirm. Same thing here on kde neon.
Adding to this Arch with KDE running 2.63.0 Appimage. Can copy in fittings. Can't copy out fittings. Clean clipboard.

Switching to AUR package fixes the issue.
Experiencing this issue on Bazzite.
Odd thing is it will paste a fit from a web based notes app, but not directly from the Eve client. So my current workaround is to paste fits into a OneNote page, then copy paste into pyfa.
Tried pasting fits into a desktop text editor then copy pasting into pyfa but that doesn't work.
That workaround works - thanks a bunch. I wonder if Gnome users have the same issue..
