Copy paste (nested) lists from Google Docs to other places?

I have a very typical ordered nested list formatted by Google Docs like this:

But whenever I try to copy paste this list into any text box, it completely removes all the numbers and shows the text as though it was just a paragraph, like when I paste it here:

I intend to continue writing lists with Google Docs formatting, because of the features like automatic renumbering in ordered lists whenever I add a new item in between, and because of the convenience of not having to manually write the spaces or worry about cross-platform formatting.

But I do hope there's a way to copy paste the list correctly, instead of having to paste screenshots of it on other platforms.
