Why does Firefox no longer include links to a particular article when copying text from a web page?
For years I used Firefox to collect information from websites by copying text from a page and pasting it into Word or OneNote. The text would appear and there would also be a link to the particular page. Now, instead of a link to a particular page, Firefox only includes a link to the site's home page. To get around this, one is forced to perform 2 tedious operations instead of one easy one: You must highlight something on the page, copy it and paste it into Word or whatever, then go back and perform "Copy Link to Highlight" and then go back to Word and paste the page information into the link creation window. Is there a workaround for this or do I have to go to Chrome or Edge to get what Firefox used to do perfectly?
