## how to fix clipboard pasting in firefox
you can fix this issue by changing a single preference in `about:config`.
### steps to enable clipboard functionality
1. go to `about:config`:

2. if asked, read what firefox has to say and press "accept the risk and continue".
⚠ tinkering with other preferences may break your browser. **do not** edit them unless you know what you're doing.

3. search for `dom.events.asyncclipboard.readtext`

5. "false" should change to "true".

6. go back to cobalt, reload the page, press `paste and download` button again. this time it works! enjoy simpler downloading experience :)
