Unwanted “Idealo” Spam in Mozilla Fennec

3 pointsby daefabout 4 years ago
When I select text in Firefox on my Android phone (Fennec #861120) The context menu shows the entries: copy, search, select all, share and idealo search. I cannot seem to find an option to disable this, neither in the settings UI, nor in about:config<p>I&#x27;m advocating for Mozilla Products as long as I can think back, but Things like this really get to me.<p>Same thoughts about compact mode deprecation.<p>Who is responsible for crap like this? I&#x27;m really in the mood to make use of shitforyou.eu<p>Jokes aside I would really appreciate a &quot;debloated&quot; Fennec build, does anyone know of such a thing or do I have to spend my time getting to know its build process?

That menu is populated by your OS, not by Firefox. Any application can implement intent ACTION_PROCESS_TEXT ( <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developer.android.com&#x2F;reference&#x2F;android&#x2F;content&#x2F;Intent#ACTION_PROCESS_TEXT" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developer.android.com&#x2F;reference&#x2F;android&#x2F;content&#x2F;Inte...</a> ) to appear in the text selection menu.
