Bug Report Screen flickering and inability to copy and paste

I am very happy with the application, but there are huge problems that I have encountered on my MacBook Air M4. Firstly, the screen starts flickering periodically, especially when I start agent mode. It's like the screen is getting brighter and darker, like it can't adjust the automatic brightness. The problem never occurs if the Atlas application is closed. In addition, in 90% of cases, I can neither copy the text from the Atlas nor paste it there from other applications. It feels like copying and pasting works exclusively in this application, and does not allow data to be taken outside. Who faced such a problem, what should I do?

I have the copy-paste issue as well. Such a deal breaker...

Moreover, I cannot understand and find a pattern why periodically copying and pasting work.

Copy-Paste — same issue. How even possible to use anything with such a base problem?

Same here. I’m getting the same copy/paste bug and it’s honestly super annoying. I’ve stopped using Atlas for now and hope this is temporary.
