      I'm looking for a way to disable (remove) the popup that appears when selecting text. It's annoying, it disrupts my workflow. I need to remove it.

      I've disabled Flow and the bs AI-prompts, but that still doesn't remove the text selection popup (Seach, Copy, etc). I need that gone yesterday!

      I searched the web for a way to disable it and looks like that setting is now gone. WHY?!

        What action do you take after selecting text?

          Most of the time I take no specific action, I just continue reading. The selected text is just a visual marker.

            Nowadays it's called "Search pop-up":
