[feature request] make long pressing links useful (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

on android long pressing links just "drags" them as if there was some place i could drop them, but i have found no such place.
i think a much more straightforward and useful feature would be to just offer to copy or open the link externally

This was just the first link I found. I get a(n optional) preview of the site and an open/copy/share menu:

yea that is nice, although i imagine the preview is handled by the os

I think it’s all provided by the OS or possibly Safari? I get basically the same thing with links in Safari:
