I can reproduce from telegram-desktop (snap) towards firefox (snap).

But this seems to "work as intended" because on drag&drop telegram is
not offering the location of a file but only a raw stream of data (the
encoded image), which I can imagine many programs don't know how to
handle. Indeed, if you drag&drop it into an image editing program like
GIMP then it does work, because GIMP will accept an image as raw data.

I **cannot** reproduce when drag&drop'ing from https://web.whatsapp.com/
from Firefox, which does seem to offer the image as both a raw data
stream as well as a (temporary) file. The standalone WhatsApp app is
likely a chromium wrapper which might not do the same.

Thus, I see no evidence of this being a GNOME bug.
