why is it so difficult select text from posts?

vanveen@lemmy.world to Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world – 48 points –

Good morning, English isn't my first language and it happens quie often that I need to select a good chunk of text to translate it with DeepL, why, in often cases, is impossible but select the title of an article that Lemmy's bot has summarised? I would appreciate, and I am pretty confident I am not the only one, if the operation would be much handier or possible. Thanks for reading this and for any tip or hint.

Sorry, which app is it? I use Voyager, that is graphically impeccable but a bit abstruse.

You're not replying directly to people either. You're only replying to the post. Maybe you can select text in Voyager too, but you don't know how.

Try Photon if you are willing to change your client. It's web-based so you can select almost everything

Avelon is very close to Voyager UI but more polished.
