Dave_Smeg@CriticalCupcake It used to be before someone decided to include the formatting on the copy command.
Tim Ward ⭐🇪🇺🔶 #FBPE@davesmeg @CriticalCupcake It's a long time (decades!) since I've written any low level Windows clipboard code, but my recollection is that the cutting application should register as many formats as it be bothered to cope with generating, and it's then up to the pasting application to choose which one it wants. So I would put the fault firmly on the pasting side.

Sounds like something a politician would come up with.
Create a problem and then let someone else come up with a solution, when they do, make the problem more complicated and make others do even more work to come up with a solution.
Iαn has moved account@davesmeg @TimWardCam @CriticalCupcake As always, this should be the USERS choice.
There was already the problem of the paste command losing information. A no-no!
If I have copied formatted text, images, tables, application objects and linked objects, in many cases I do not wish to lose work and have to redo it. So they fixed the problem.
It's not just a plain text world for many people.
@ianp5a @davesmeg @CriticalCupcake Yes, it should be the user's choice. We're discussing what should be the *default*, without having to right click or find a menu or anything.

@TimWardCam @ianp5a @davesmeg @CriticalCupcake You can hold CTRL+SHIFT+V to paste without formatting.
Laurence Gonsalves@TimWardCam Yes, it works in Slack, at least on Linux and macOS.
