I’m using 2.9.9.5 Beta, and I’m having trouble copying text from Scrivener. It never retains the original formatting, no matter what I do–I know I’m not using “paste and match style” or anything like that.

Maybe I’m doing something wrong, but I’m just using ctrl+C and ctrl+V.
You’re probably using Chrome, Edge or Opera to paste into Google Docs or your CMS. Try it in Firefox. Behavior reported at link below, and it hasn’t landed a repair ticket. 
RC4 - Scrivener HTML clipboard not recognized in Chromium-based browsers. Plain text only.
(Stipulations: Thread should probably be moved to the Beta forum. I consider this a bug very much in need of repair. OP and I are unknown to one another.)
