I can't reproduce this, but I should note that I've swapped my left Alt and left Meta keys in the keyboard settings since my physical Meta key no longer works. It seems unlikely, but not impossible that swapping the Meta key would affect my ability to reproduce this. Can anyone with a functioning Meta key reproduce this?

I had 2 of my friends reproduce this before posting. One was on Fedora, the other on Arch both on 5.24.5

Oh are you using Wayland by any chance? I can't reproduce this on my wayland box. Might be X11 only, both my friends were on X.

No, I am also on X11, but I am using a git master version of Plasma rather than 5.24.5
