In which way? Can you specify a default pasting style with versions of
LO that run on Windows or MacOS? Do people using Windows or MacOS always
want to paste the way LO has made an unchangeable default and never
paste "unformatted text" or whatever other styles there are?

It doesn´t make any sense to me that the default pasting style (or
however you may call it) is unchangeable, and that doesn´t have anything
at all to do with what operating system I´m using.

I could say the same about users of other OSs.

Am I?

I can only speak for myself, and I don´t expect anyone to have the same
point of view I have. Nobody in this discussion has yet explained why
being able to set a default posting style would be a bad feature because
they are using a particular OS. If you think that is the case, you´re
welcome to explain it.

It´s always a possibility that nobody has had the same problems you
encountered, so nobody was able to help. That a problem cannot be solved
with answeres from a mailing list happens to me as well. What do you
expect?
