Starting for last few updates (on the last month) each time I hold my mouse click button for a few seconds on any page I am greeted with this popup: (see attached)

Main question: How do i disable this popup?

Second, what is the feature even about? why is it a feature? and what is the point of it?

About: Firefox 146.0.1 (64-bit) - FF for Arch linux

Did you check the Settings? See Preview webpages in Firefox with link preview.

Thank you. Helped me find the setting, also led me to find a few new settings. Overhaul 4 settings changed, sounds productive:

"Enable link previews" OFF "Use AI to suggest tabs and a name for tab groups" OFF "Ask before closing multiple tabs" ON (I thought I had this already ON years ago, weird) "Always show scrollbars" ON
