Why is it, that some applications (namely Firefox and VSCode) seems to place the current selection into the buffer that is accessed with the middle Mouse Button and not the one accessed by Shift+ins, used anywhere else.
It seems usually selecting places the content into both buffers, but just not in platform ignorant builds…
This often breaks my work flow. Any idea on how to fix this?

nah
that’s some age old struggle
idk how people still justify that clusterfuck, but it’s that way since forever. I remember vividly how we were annoyed by such shit with some “cross platform” gui toolkits (or browsers) back when debian woody still was relevant.
This won’t be solved in this decade. or the next.
