My question is actually the opposite of what people are asking on this forum/help section. I usually need to select and copy sections of http address from and to address bar due to the nature of day 2 day work. Firefox has a very annoying feature : when you click on address... it selects all and defaults to drag and drop action instead of letting me select a section of that text as a normal text field would do. So in order to select and copy/paste a section of the URL i have to do a lot of additional clicks on the url until i get the desired result. How do i disable this in order to have it behave more like normal browsers?

hello marmota2406, you can adapt that behaviour, so that a click into the address bar doesn't select the whole string automatically. enter about:config into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named browser.urlbar.clickSelectsAll - double-click and change that entry to false.
