Hope folks can help, as a life long Windows 10 user migrating to MacOS for first time and well still need to master differences in keyboard shortcuts :) Having difficulties figure out how to paste copied text without formatting (paste plain text).
  • On Windows 10, in Opera One browser, I could highlight formatted text and copy and then paste it as plain text without formatting using ctrl+shift+v
  • But MacOS 10, in Opera One browser, cmd+shift+v or ctrl+cmd+shift+v doesn't do anything at all? The only thing that works is if in Opera One, right-click and use paste and match style. Maybe it's because Opera One is override MacOS keyboard shortcut? But I also tried in MacOS Microsoft OneNote app and same thing, can not paste as plain text using keyboard shortcuts?

You can see what the keyboard shortcuts are by looking in the menu bar (Paste and Match Style is under Edit), or reference this page:

The one you're looking for is Option-Shift-Command-V.
