I hate having to save shit to my laptop when sites won't let me paste instead of upload. Alternative anything that lets you access clipboard from windows file explorer could work too

That's strange - though I don't use Windows. Generally I upload images to imagr to paste links, but images generally paste straight from the clipboard...

I always found most of Opera's extras to be adding stuff that doesn't really need adding... maybe look at alternative clipboard managers or something (I use CopyQ).

i am not able to simply paste images through the clipboard, im forced to open file explorer. nothing happens if i try to paste.

however, this extension works fine (restart firefox after installing and enabling 'dom.events.asyncClipboard.clipboardItem' in about:config): https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/clipboard2file/
