I have run into this too, it is really frustrating. Sometimes Slack rolls out small UX changes or bugs that break basic things like this on iOS, and it takes a while before they fix it. Usually updating or reinstalling helps, but not always.
Current slack app can copy and paste via app and contextual menus in 26.2
However safari does some of the same stuff you’re describing. I’ve found it difficult to edit a single typo in a URL or get to the end of it to add or modify a path lately. And then I can’t cut or copy characters in some fields unless I first add a few more— then the copy and cut options come back.
I’ve seen it groused about on HN ..and though I just had no problem cutting and pasting this URL from safari just now, I’m with you — this comes and goes anx I spend a lot of time swearing at this behavior
I can consistently reproduce it on WP editor in safari - seems like it starts leaking memory after two or three edit/saves and can only be cured by clearing cache and starting over. Even then it’s become unusable and I lose work so I have to use desktop

That does not happen to me. Does it happen to your coworkers as well?
At least the ones I talked to all had the same experience :(

Editing HN comments hits it too.
