      I can't use long press to open the context menu anymore, started happening after latest update with the UI changes (89). I've tried most of what I can think of to fix the issue, including installing the previous version (88) through apkmirror, where long press does indeed work again (but then the adblocker doesn't seem to want to work with older versions for some reason). Running Android 8 (EMUI 8).

        @qcig Long press where? If I long press a word, I do get a menu then, while long press on an empty area of the page does nothing.

          @sgunhouse long pressing a hotlink or an image should open a context menu, where I can select "save image" or "open link in new tab". That is the specific long press that is not working.
