Same result for me. Installed copyQ and QSI showed in copyQ but not native clipboard. Second trial and shows in both.
I just tested in a fresh VM install. I installed xclip then rebooted, wondering if that would also cause QSI to get copied to the native KDE clipboard as xclip's only 26k, but no joy.
Can't replicate that, it works perfectly fine in my live VM:
It might be a timing issue that might be fixed by the latest sddm-init package, or a user issue: how do you copy with middle-mouse click or Ctrl+V?

I can reproduce it. Perhaps a timing issue or something else. The clipboard get clearly populated. But just trying to paste
from the menu or pressing Ctrl+V does not paste (always). At least reproducable after reboot.
Also I noted pressing Ctrl+V twice seems to "unblock" the clipboard paste buffer.
Not sure, a clipboard config issue?
Perhaps, I'm thinking also (in addition) to populate the primary paste buffer, so people can just paste with middle-click, if they like.
I think the advantages some other distros' Plasma release would have over MX is being able to use the newer 5.18 Plasma, though. There were some improvements not available to the Buster version.
For example, the layout of all the theming options in the Settings Manager was improved, you no longer needed to set the icons separately for both Qt/Plasma and gtk applications, and if you used Breeze for both qt and gtk apps, Breeze-gtk would automatically follow the colour scheme you applied to the Plasma/Qt side of things.
Also, some of the newer sddm themes you find on KDE Store cannot work on Plasma 5.14's sddm version, unfortunately. For instance, Sweet's plasma and kvantum theme will work in 5.14, but not its rather pretty sddm theme (I'm enjoying it in Neon).
On the other hand, Plasma 5.14 is already usable and stable. If you're not looking for the flashiest, most glossy frosted glass look, 5.14 is perfectly fine (you can enable the frosted "blur" look in 5.14 manually using the blur option in Desktop Effects).

In addition 5.18 does not require unlocking widgets to add them. A minor thing but ease of use enhancement. I echo asqwerth's comments however. 5.14 is buster stable and a full fledged Plasma 5 release. The MX beta1 is a pleasure to use and will fulfill KDE fan's wish for a supported MX version, with many of the MX Tool enhancements.

I had a problem when trying to work with Ksnip, when doing the capture it closes, I have to resort to Spectacle but it doesn't have the functions that I like of Ksnip.
I still can't work with tutanota-desktop-linux.AppImage, it has all the execution permissions. In XFCE it didn't have any failure to run.

please provide a link where I can download the problematic appimage. Thanks!

One thing I really miss with our version of KDE is the ability to change the formats of the date. You just get the preset shortdate, longdate, or ISO.
Older versions let you change the format (although bizarrely not using strftime codes), and so does newer versions.

We made that the new default on 19.2 and forward but the change didn't make it inot the kde setup...we will make that adjustment to the KDE iso for beta2.
Hello There,
Nice work already. Thanks a lot.
Didn't try it myself for now, but it seems someone have found a bug with Muon : https://youtu.be/1fCl_wLu8Vk?t=595
Muon > Configuration > Configure Software Sources. (open Software Sources window "software-properties-kde")
pop up appears > password entered but validation didn't seem to respond, with no message...
