Details

Steps to reproduce:

Under i3wm (x11) the file will be saved successfully. Under sway (wayland) the file manager is stuck attempting to copy the image.

I suspect the difference is that under X11 firefox attaches the file contents, image file path in the disk cache, a file descriptor or something like that to the drag event while under wayland it only sends the URL which can't be downloaded because it requires a login.

Compositor: Sway 1.8

Name Firefox
Version 110.0a1
Build ID 20230106214742
Window Protocol wayland
