Any workaround or setting I'm missing?
I can't reproduce this on Windows. Are you sure this isn't a issue with how your terminal passes along input or how MacOS pastes from the clipboard?
I have the same issue using ubuntu. My str from clipboard is cut of after a certain characters.
I tried it with the standard input
function from python, everything works like expected.
inquirer.text("clipboard")
input("clipboard")
# Clipboard

@gaidzla This is sadly a current limitation. Pasting text has issues at the moment. They stems from how readchar
(the underlaying libary) can currently not handle fast inputs, only "slow" input typed by a human. See magmax/python-readchar#95 for details
