It is my hope that Privacy is the community for this. I think freedom to use browsers the way we intend is a privacy issue.
We have likely all seen or heard that the “Select All” option has been removed from Safari — don’t hate me, I won’t be doing apple again.
That said, manual SELECTING of text still exists.
Here’s the privacy issue:
When I SELECT a small amount of text, I am offered the COPY option.
When I SELECT a few hundred words, even at Gutenberg, I’m given zero time to hit the copy button.
Just now I shifted to Firefox and had zero problem doing what I needed to do.
Could other interested folks confirm this SAFARI bug/irritant/annoyance?
Here’s the page I was using:

In safari, check what happens if you try to copy five words vs. 300 words.
Wow! That’s awesome. Thank you!
Still, I can’t believe we’ve allowed the corporations to dictate the whole select all option — glad there’s a work around, but seriously, we used to have the select all feature everywhere.
