Android, Fx v 97.2.0 (Build #2015863825)

I am unable to copy text from youtube comments when viewing videos in Firefox browser for Android. Long pressing doesn't work. I am able to copy YT comments in other browsers such as Opera, DuckGo, Chrome and the Adblock Plus browser.

Someone recommended using an add-on called Universal Copy but it has bad reviews and I don't understand why an add-on is necessary for such a basic task.

Why is it not possible to do this in Firefox browser but possible in the other browsers? How do I copy YT comment text when using Firefox browser to watch YT videos?

So the solution is to use another browser such as Chrome, AdBlock Plus, Opera or DuckDuckGo. It's kind of amazing that in 2022 something as simple as copying text isn't possible in Firefox.
