  1. You can change that setting in your about:config by setting dom.event.clipboardevents.enabled to false.
  2. This sadly prevents pasting (T)OTPs for websites that choose to have 6 separate input fields. You have to enter these codes manually.

why the hell do websites even have those 6 separate input fields? you can just have one and style it differently

Because some product teams are cunts, and some products are just plain shit.

Do you know if this add-on does pretty much the same thing and with that will also have the regression regarding (T)OTP input fields?

I have a partial answer. The add-on has different modes for different degrees of bypassing. I’m sure the complete bypass would break it, but not sure about intermediate options.

I can confirm that it has not appeared to affect the functionality of those sites for me. Although... There are some sites with multiple fields that don't work and some that do, I've just assumed that the sites which don't work were down to poor code.

Disabling clipboardevents entirely disables the clipboard API, meaning that single-click copy operations won't work.

Maybe you're fine with that, but it's worth noting.

Possibly a job for "insert text by typing" in a program like Keyboard Maestro on macOS.

Edit: baller app, it is:
