Now with Wayland, this is all broken and supposedly &ldquo;there are better ways of doing it&rdquo;. One of those is <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/vim/comments/k1ydpn/a_guide_on_how_to_copy_text_from_anywhere/">OSC52</a> support in terminals, but not in <a href="https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Terminal/VTE">VTE</a> based ones, like <a href="https://gnunn1.github.io/tilix-web/">Tilix</a>, which <strike>is</strike> was my default terminal. (See <a href="https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vte/-/issues/2495">https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vte/-/issues/2495</a> for the 5(!) year old bug).</p> <p>So I wanted this to work, which meant changing terminal and configuring Neovim - where the latter was way more complex, hard to debug and reason about.</p>
