Make more noise about bad UI design.
As far as I'm concerned, this particular behaviour is a product of an incorrectly designed user interface. Within the Windows-style clipboard paradigm, pressing 'copy' in a text field has always been a command saying "copy my selection to the clipboard". The program ignores half of this command and acts in a surprising way.
- ay 3y agoIn this particular case a fair bit of noise was made when it was introduced; namely - the UI hiding the URI scheme. It started in Chrome. https://superuser.com/questions/1356867/chrome-69-hiding-www-and-protocol https://superuser.com/questions/1356867/chrome-69-hiding-www... All the noise was summarily ignored, “because we know better”. We need more browser diversity.

- ay 3y agoI use Firefox since the time it was Netscape Navigator 2.0. Unfortunately that’s not the case for almost 70% of the others. Thus de-facto there is no browser diversity. The only saving grace for me as a user is majority of the things possible are already standardized, so there is a relatively small vendor lock-in surface, thus I am not quite forced to switch to chrom.*
- stavros 3y agoMy comment was mostly aimed to other people (I suspected you might be using Firefox).
