Other than that I probably fall in the "it's not that hard" camp. Of all the problems you have to solve, getting it to look reasonable on a few different screen sizes is pretty far down the list in terms of time and complexity.
- extraduder_ire 3y agoI think long press handles both that and right-click on touchscreens. Or at least that's what I use to get at image alt text on mobile firefox. Actual hover detection would be possible, but I imagine that UX would suck unless you were using a stylus.
- wildrhythms 3y agoLong press is already an engrained mobile OS behavior (begin text selection). And it doesn't solve the problem because the hover state is largely non-visible beneath the user's finger.
