Copy paste in Notes doesn't work
I cannot copy (command + C, command + V) paste text from Notes. It gives weird random text, it is not possible outside of Notes.
Original text: product is market ready
copy paste: ved, N

Hello -- lots of posts on this issue in the community, wanted to reply in this thread because it's fairly active.
I've been experiencing this issue for years, and I've been experiencing it fairly consistently to the point where I can predict when it's going to happen.
It almost always happens after I have copied/pasted medium chunks of text with a lot of checklist formatting, checked or unchecked, from one note to another.
After I do one or two of those is when the glitch usually hits. I'm pretty sure the checklist formatting is somehow the culprit.
This is pretty consistent for me -- every Sunday or so, I make my to do list for the week, which includes copy/pasting a bunch of checklist-formatted text from the previous week's to do list. It rarely -- if ever -- happens otherwise. And it almost always happens when I am doing this specific task.
The only fix I've found is to quit/restart the app and try again. It happens so consistently it's pretty much part of my weekly workflow. :)
This has been happening consistently for years, across multiple versions of up to date macOS installs, at least two different laptops, a myriad of various software coming and going from my machine, etc etc.
Seeing a lot of trouble tracking this down beyond an intermittent problem, hope this helps the detectives on the case.
Yes, and it started shortly thereafter. I wonder if it might be a cloud thing. Notes not synching either (do randomly) and I can cut, paste, etc on my iPad and phone.
