If you are using a Wayland based desktop that is to be expected. Most applications using the newer GTK or QT 
libraries work in native Wayland modes without using X.

One of Wayland's goals is security so applications are not allowed to read the clipboard or read or send 
input events to other applications. Anything like that has to be done in the compositor now.
