I am able to reproduce the issue in a disco VM.

When copying the link from twitter in chromium, the text/html contents
of the clipboard looks like that:

<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><span
style="color: rgb(20, 23, 26); font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;,
Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-
variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400;
letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px;
text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;
-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgb(230, 236, 240);
text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; display:
inline !important; float:
none;">https://twitter.com/someone/status/sometweet</span>

But when copying the same link from twitter in firefox, the text/html
contents of the clipboard is different:

<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"><span
style="position: absolute; opacity:
0;">https://twitter.com/someone/status/sometweet</span>

The relevant bit is "opacity: 0". That makes the link invisible. This is
a bug on twitter's side, I would say. There's no good reason for them to
make the link invisible when using firefox.

** Summary changed:

- Pasted Twitter links are invisble.
+ Pasted Twitter links are invisible

** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed
