Anyone know how to suppress the inane Firefox mobile "Link copied to clipboard" toast-style message that pops up after copying links and block access to what you wanted to click on after copying the link?

@hyc Oh, I'll have to try that. But I bet if I knew what it's called there's an about:config or CSS way to get rid of it entirely.
🖕 whoever came up with the idea of popping up an annoying message to tell you the browser did exactly what you just told it to do.
Maybe the intent is to prevent clipboard-API actions from taking place behind your back, but that doesn't mean the message should pop up for browser-UI actions too. I've disabled the clipboard API because it's a gaping vulnerability, so the only copy events will be ones I very intentionally performed via long-press.
