[Feature Request] Option to disable hiding comments via long press

Often I tend to scroll too slowly and it registers as a long press so some random comment gets hidden and I have to unhide it. Can you add an option to disable long press actions? Or it could be improved so it doesn't register if it's not a stationary press but I'm not sure whether it would work or if other people already like the way long press works.

Edit: Apparently it already registers only stationary press so maybe either an on/off switch or long press time adjustment would be good to have.

Triggering the select/copy function on long press would feel more natural in my opinion.

I agree with this. I also feel like collapsing a comment thread should be an option when you highlight a selected comment, rather than getting rid of the feature.

What's the actual way to select text in a comment now? I haven't found a way

To copy the whole comment you can open the kebab menu of the comment and select Copy Text but I don't think it's possible to select just a portion of the text in thread view. In reply view it seems to work by long pressing the comment. So you have to click reply in order to select text.
