I think KeePass sends keypresses rather than copy-paste, at least
when
using auto-type of passwords. I *have* encountered sites that inhibit
paste, but so far I have not encountered any sites where auto-type
doesn't work. Sometimes auto-type has to be customized to
accommodate
a specific tab sequence, delays for going to a 2nd page, etc.
I still think you should check into it and see if it addresses your
issues.
I used LastPass (before they changed their policy regarding free
accounts) and now used BitWarden. I get round the copy-paste limitation
where necessary by using middle-button paste. Since that isn't
supported on Windows and MacOS, the designers of these web pages don't
have a way to block it. Yet another advantage of using Linux :-)
