Hell yeah, I did that!




Ya'll gaslighting me? I tried to do that, and found it didn't work, which was just wonderfully ironic. I ended up verifying there's a `user-select: none;` in the actual `select-text.html` styling that is indeed disabling text selection. Was it added later for shits and/or giggles?

Myself, and I think others, were referring to highlighting the text of your comment. You're indeed correct that the original posted article doesn't allow selection.

Ahh, that would make sense.
