From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If for some reason you paste a file in telegram/slack/discord/teams, it tries to send the file, so I have no way of sending the path to the file (which might be on a shared device) to someone unless I paste it in a text editor first and then copy the text.
That's a very logical use case. Are there any keyboard modifiers you could use? Maybe pasting with CTRL+SHIFT+V for example?
