Hey Folks,

For years we’ve been able to paste files into the Discourse editor in Google Chrome and then later in Safari (when Apple finally came around).

Now it seems that Chrome and all other Chrome-based browsers have broken this feature.

Can someone confirm or suggest a fix?

TIA.

Images paste fine from the Mac Clipboard.

Image files, Zip files and other authorized file-types do not.
