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
