They have purposely disabled being able to select text (outside of the SVG graphics) by literally doing this in CSS: * {
user-select: none;
}
The user-select: none; is intended for places where interaction with an element (e.g., drag and drop, clicking, sliding) is required and text selection should not occur. You might use it discretely on a HTML button.Blanket banning of text selection is a habit I've seen with developers who live in a touchscreen-heavy bubble, and who feel that users have no reason to select text at all unless explicitly enabled by the developer. > As citizens of the technology era, there is an undeniable need for optimal clarity in our writing. There, I copied that quote from their website (by disabling the relevant CSS); one example of a totally valid reason for wanting to select text. |
