Is it possible to copy paste with QEMU?

I’m running Arch on my machine with Kali in a QEMU VM and I’d like to copy paste between the two. How can this be done?

    I’ve tried this solution but could not get it to work. Do I need to install Spice on Arch? Do I have to run QEMU with certain parameters?

      Are you running QEMU directly, or through libvirt (GNOME Boxes, Virt Manager)?

      EDIT: NVM I see you’ve answered that in another comment. I believe you can’t do this with QEMU directly. If you don’t need to be able to edit the VM config besides core count, disk size and RAM use GNOME Boxes. Otherwise use Virt Manager.
