Unable to select text in the middle of a link
Hi,
I'm on Firefox 75 and it has the same behavior as Edge, can't select a part of the text from the middle of the link..
about extensions, I found one, tested it, works on Edge
all you have to do is hover your mouse over the link and then hold CTRL, you will be able to do exactly like in Opera

Turns out you don't need an extension for this. If you press ALT and then try to select the text from a link it works (Just like the extension with CTRL). Apparently its the same for firefox and chrome also!
Oh lol nice,
so that extension developer just swapped CTRL and ALT buttons and called it a new thing.
I have just checked and even chrome behaves like edge so probably that is an opera only feature, I took that feature for granted it is very useful specially if you visit a lot of forums.
And thanks for the extension I will have a look!
Hopefully the edge team can implement this feature in the future.
