Found solution to my problem, but not sure why?
Had an old Lenova R60 notebook that I had also upgrade 
to Fedora 34. Locally, the copy paste worked fine. VNCed 
to other Fedora 34 system, and not working. Clicked on 
the clipboard manager clipit, and unloaded it, and copy 
paste went back to working just fine. So guess the Fedora 
34 version an Fedora34 vnc don't work well together. 
Ctrl-C Ctrl-V is much more useful than clipit for me.
