I click on a card, hit "paste" in the window, and get text I've previously copied.

I'm guessing it's not working ... it's certainly not doing what I expect, even at that stage.

Demonstrating how easy it is to get someone to disclose their clipboard contents to any web page that asks? ;) Not working for me either, but it was surprising to see my previous copied text.

Hmm. Guessing you're trying it on Android? It's relying on the navigator.clipboard API, and generally the experience is not good on mobile

I'm having the same issue on Firefox 99 on Linux (NixOS).

Agh. Turns out Firefox doesn't support it, my bad! Safari and Chrome work fine, but I'm guessing that's not an option for many Linux users. Sorry!

Same...was just browsing stack overflow for positive mod, so I got

"return (i % n + n) % n;"
