I know it's not intuitive but, can you try to long-press close to the input caret @supernovia and see if that causes the "Paste" popup to happen? Thanks!

I tested and confirmed using Pixel, Android 8.1.0, WPAndroid alpha-111 that a long press on the My Sites > People > "Usernames or Emails" field only works if you press directly on top of the input caret.

I'm able to long-press paste now -- did something change?

Nothing's changed @supernovia AFAICT. Long-press works when performed near the caret and it doesn't when far enough.

Got it, I didn't notice myself pasting far from the caret before

Closing as it looks like this issue is resolved.
