Request: select and copy text with a long-press (lemmy.world)

I often want to copy some phrase from a post to search it on the web. Long-pressing post text minimizes this post into a single line, which is not very useful IMO, I would rather have text selection cursor like in a web browser.

you can give jerboa a whirl until connect updates.

if i open a comment like I've just opened yours, i can select any part of the comment directly with a long press.

Jerboa was the first Lemmy client that I've installed. Lemmy Connect is the closest to Reddit is Fun in the interface layout, that's why I ended up with it.

cool. no pressure at all to switch, I was thinking if text selection is an important feature for you, jerboa's right there.

idk reddit is fun.

i used boost on reddit, then jerboa here.

stuck with the first thing i tried both times, haha
