Description Jens 2025-11-05 17:01:28 UTC 
SUMMARY
Text in the mastodon tooths (posts/threads) cannot be selected. 

So it's not possible to do anything with it, like copy the text to use it elsewhere.

Came here to ask for the same. Therefore +1
Comment 2 Joshua Goins 2025-11-15 16:36:16 UTC 
This intentional unfortunately, for other reasons we discovered when using it on touch devices and scrolling etc. However, copying text is quite important so I'll add a menu option to copy the text.

Add menu item for copying post text

This has to be used instead of having our text be selectable,
unfortunately.
