I can confirm this. To make it more clean. When marking text in opera it shows up the android copy, share, mark all buttons at the top. Pressing on copy will print the android message: "Error copying to clipboard".

@tortoisedoc If you want to copy something as a workaround click on share -> email and then copy the text from the email app. Cumbersome but it works.

For me it gives notification “Failed copy to clipboard”, nevertheless it actually works. I can paste copied text systemwide. XperiaX, Lightning browser.

Just checked another Android app I use: FBReader. Copying works, and gives notification “Copied to clipboard: «text copied»”

Other two apps: FDroid and YalpStore. No notification, copying works.

Edit: Update for the comment above. Lightning browser copying web address field works without any notification, the notification mentioned above appears copying a text within the page.

Using the same Opera Mini version on SFOS 2.1.4.14, I can copy text without issues. However, I do not get any notification about it.
