Yup! After just selecting a piece of text, that command gives me:
text/html
text/_moz_htmlcontext
text/_moz_htmlinfo
text/plain;charset=utf-8
UTF8_STRING
COMPOUND_TEXT
TEXT
text/plain
STRING
text/plain;charset=utf-8
text/plain
text/x-moz-url-priv
x-kde-passwordManagerHint

The Firefox flatpak is preinstalled browser for me. I could try removing it and
reinstalling it with --user, to see if that makes a difference. I'm using it
right now so it might be a bit of a chore to set it up the way I like to set it
up (I'm pretty privacy-focused).

Maybe it has to do with the immutable base? The way the system interacts with
apps is slightly different than with mutable systems? We could report to
https://invent.kde.org/kde-linux/kde-linux/-/work_items and see what we get.

Oh I see. So then at least, we'll have to move it somewhere else in KDE
bugtracker or to KDE Linux GitLab.
