As relatable problems go, not being able to select text solely for its own sake doesn’t feel that great of one.
Doing it just feels so extra: like, why do that & just waste it?
Are we hyperactive?
Should we work on impulse control?
Selecting highlights to show the scope of an operation.
As a nuisance, offering extra, context-relevant functionality doesn’t seem that great of one, either: I can just ignore that & ctrl-c.
And I don’t see a great alternative to a popover offering that functionality.
It probably saves a few clicks when done right.
Removing standard functionality, however, is extremely relatable.
I’ll go into Dev Tools to remove anything disabling copy & paste, because fuck that & burn the control freak who signed off on that.
Right-click? We civilized people ctrl-c. 😁
