Description
Text in comments cannot be selected in the usual way, using a long press. I often need to search particular words or phrases from posts, which I'm used to doing with Android's text selection toolbar.
I'm using version 1.18.1 on Android 11.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue on Android 11 using RedReader 1.18.1, focusing on text in comments. Trace how comment text is rendered and handled for touch input. Done means a long press selects comment text and exposes Android's text selection toolbar for searching or other actions.
