Konrad, sorry, very sorry. This message poped up in my Spam folder, I
only just saw it today. So, earlier today I sent you, and the Debian bug
system, a message saying I cannot replicate (and can you help me
reproduce it). If you see that message, please disregard it !
(I suspect Thunderbird refuses to respond to what it considers Spam, OK
if it tells me!).
Anyway, a real answer. I am afraid this is yet another Wayland/Qt5/6
problem.
You have a couple of choices -
* If you use the gtk2 version of tomboy-ng, then it works fine. Please
consider https://github.com/tomboy-notes/tomboy-ng/releases, the package
without either "Qt5" or "Qt6" is what you need. My test on U2404 Gnome
indicates no extra dependencies are needed.
* Switch you system back to X11 from Wayland. You may be surprised at
the number of other things that suddenly start to work ! Logout, from
the login screen, select your name, lower left there is a now gear
symbol, click and select the only non-wayland option. Log back in again.
* Change your desktop to a user friendly one, Mate, xfce, Cinnamon,
Budgie etc.
I suggest one of the above because its going to take me some time to
track down the actual cause of this problem, if I am right and its
Qt/Wayland related, even longer to get it fixed ! Maybe, we will be
lucky and its a known issue with a know fix but even that will take some
time to establish. If we are really lucky, its in my code but don't hold
your breath.
*Konrad, please answer direct to me or log an issue* at
https://github.com/tomboy-notes/tomboy-ng/issues - I don't know whats
happening with my account at Debian but right now, but I have other
things on my plate.
Debian is a fabulous organisation with really great people but their
infrastructure is not very user friendly !
Again, sorry for the slow response.

Dear David,
I can confirm that I have the same issue with copy-pasting. It appears
to be universal, copying from tomboy-ng to any other application fails
when using ctl+v or the right-click menu for inserting. However, via the
middle mouse button it is possible to paste.
I'm on Ubuntu 23.10 and tomboy is on 0.36a-2.
Kind regards,
Konrad
