  Just today CTL V only pastes text with formatting and URLs with markup. I was used to CTL V pasting only plain text but now my copy and paste into Simplenote does not allow it. There is no menu or right click option to paste plain text. I was very satisfied with the ability to paste article titles and URLs as plain text to include in my work but now I need a tool that can paste plain text. Don’t know why this happened today but I wish it didn’t. Sorry if this is covered elsewhere.

  Thanks for the suggestion. ctrl-shift-v does indeed fix my problem even though I am not a Firefox user and my situation is standalone on Win 11. No browser involved. I don’t consider this a fix since paste on the menu is also messed up. At least I have a workaround and I appreciate your assistance.
