So far the alternatives to capricious developer choices are: - Draw Chinese characters into a translator - Just have every website support every language ever - Install cliboard manager software to handle the fact you don’t always want to copy Gotta love HN.

It's frustrating that sharing workarounds in good faith attracts drive-by snark like this comment.

  I don't want a good-faith workaround for a website hijacking my clipboard. I want the website and its developers to stop doing things that are stupid and wrong.

    I don't disagree! But as long as they continue to do stupid and wrong things, workarounds remain useful.
