hey, the auto paste doesn't seem to work for me (i'm in the UK) but it does for my friend (who's in the US) with the same distro (Arch with xfcee4), equally up to date and both of us downloaded Emote through aur, and i'm at a bit of a loss to know why it work for my friend but not for me. we also both have the same settings on clipboard manager

Probably you are using Wayland? The aur version has some changes vs this codebase though, so I'd say it's not officially supported.

i just checked and i'm definitely using X11
image but im gonna see if the version from snap works

Edit: the snap version has the same issue, but while it does run, i got this error on load when running it in the console:
