Reminds me of the time I couldn't get my code to compile due to invisible unicode characters in the code I copy-pasted from the web.

Kinda related, I always copy paste into a "simple" text editor before I copy paste into something else. Slack is so bad about having hidden characters I don't even want to think what other sites/programs do.

Do you know if Ctrl+shift+v is good enough? (Paste as plain text)

That's a great question. I would assume so since the whole point would be to strip out odd encodings. I don't have to do it often enough saved in going to assume that option will depend on the program/OS and if it supports it.
