Hi, I tried your bindings and no, the cursor does not exit copy mode. I'm on a mac as well and both the tmux copy buffer and the macOS clipboard receive the text (through pbcopy). The cursor stays at its last position (when y was pressed) in copy-mode(-vi).
Do you get the reset behaviour for a completely empty .tmux.conf with only those two lines?
