Ya, I'm not saying it's not doable if you get the timing exactly right (like within 10ms). But it SUUUUCCCKKKKSSSS. I end up doing a Like on and off about 25 times before I finally get the intended reaction. Actually, as I got wiser with age and not trying to waste time, I go turn on my computer and do it from there so I'm not spending 30 minutes.
Ya, I just feel like it would work a LOT better/cleaner/as intended if it was similar to clicking on a user avatar...
I don't think it's technically selecting Like during the long press... however getting the timing of the long press right seems to be elusive to me somehow. Most of the time I end up with the reaction popup open and the Like link being pressed/Liked. And when Like doesn't get clicked, the text, "Like" ends up being selected like I'm trying to copy/paste it.
The text selection thing is easy enough with CSS... that wasn't the thing that was driving me batty... was the rest of it. Been using Chrome on iOS. It also seems like now that I'm trying to actually do it, I can't get it to happen again. I swear someone is trolling me and fixed it in the last hour or something because every time for the last few years it was a problem... even today right before I made this thread (I didn't update anything in the last hour on my end). lol

To me it would make sense to not require a gesture at all... well just a "click"... that pulls up the menu. I know it would be 2 clicks to do it on mobile, but is 2 single-clicks worse than a 1 double-click that no one knows about? I mean isn't that how clicking on avatars work? Ends up being 2 clicks to get to the member profile, but at least it's consistent and not hidden gestures. Imagine if you had to long-press to show the member tooltip instead of how it is now.
Probaby depends on reaction usage - if reactions other than Like are only used infrequently it certainly does make sense (to me) to make that reaction avialable with just one tap.

How about:
.message-footer {
user-select: none;
-webkit-user-select: none;
}
I didn't test it exhaustively, but a basic test just now and it works as I would expect on Desktop Chrome and Safari on iOS (Safari needs the -webkit prefix, but Chrome is fine without it).
I've been trying and I swear something had to of changed. Because for the last 3 or 4 years, I couldn't NOT get it to happen (more times than I can count I either had to go to a desktop machine to give a reaction other than Like or just settle for Like because I didn't care enough to go to a desktop machine), but now I can't.
