You can sometimes do it anyway by right clicking (or long hold tap) on the text field to get a contextual menu popup

    They've started blocking that too on phones, which is what led to this meme lol. Curiously, GBoard has a little button on the top row that shows for freshly copied text when you go into a text field that still works, GBoard must not send the text as a paste when it's done that way. But its only visible once

    Unexpected Keyboard has a similar optional key — which website are you using with this behavior? I wonder if pasting from it would trigger the detection. Also, it lets you bind strings to keys — I wonder if that would act in a similar manner.

    So far, it's worked wherever Ive encountered the "advanced" paste blocking. Just recently, my bank loan payment form has done this that I needed to use the "last resort" option lmao
