I don’t have a solution for you but yep this is the new and “improved” widget. Nothing wrong with your phone :(.

Since this is built into the OS, your only options are modifying the app or modding the OS, neither of which are things I’m well versed in but here’s some stuff that can get you started if you’re feeling adventurous:

Modding the app: The way these actions work is android apps add a line in their manifest that registers them as handlers for “ACTION_PROCESS_TEXT”. Article on this.

I’d imagine you’d want to try and find a way to remove that registration from the app’s manifest. Couldn’t tell you exactly how but I know ReVanced lets you mod apps other than YouTube, so it could help with that?

Modding the OS: Since it’s built into the OS. If you can find the code that handles text selection actions, you could start with a custom ROM and add your own code that disables that action. Maybe even build a UI around it to help others with a similar complaint?!

Since nobody in the comments is being helpful I figured I’d do a little research for you. The TL;DR is apps can just put ads on your text selection any time they want + there’s nothing you can do about it. At least on my phone, the ads are hidden in the overflow menu so I hadn’t noticed them until I saw your post + checked in there. Perhaps on your device they show up because you have a wider screen?

Here’s another person with a similar complaint: https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/228224/how-to-edit-the-android-context-menu

Got a Sony Bravia OLED and it’s set up as a dumb TV, turns on instantly + I never see the Smart TV UI, not even a logo.

What I did was decline everything at setup, hook up to the Internet via Ethernet once to update, unplug Ethernet and set it to turn on to last input.

I’ve found it actually makes it easier for advertisers to track me - I tried turning it off briefly, expecting completely random, useless ads, but instead saw disturbingly relevant ads, which basically reflected a profile of the sites I visited regularly, for example, ads for products sold by random obscure sites I visit regularly. Not only that, but the ads followed me across sites.

Not entirely sure why that was but my guess is that by simply allowing ads to load, you’re letting ad providers like Facebook/Google collect far more identifying information to improve their confidence that you’ve visited a given site, vs by not loading them all they know is their tracking/ad script was requested. Similarly, by clicking an ad you’re now also visiting an advertiser’s site, loading even more tracking.

For AdNauseum to achieve it’s stated purpose, it would also need to visit random sites to pollute ad providers’ profiles on you.

House centipedes may look like some prehistoric creature from the depths of hell, but really they’re like spiders, they’re your friends - they kill and eat bugs. You just don’t see them as often because they’re terrified of humans and zoom away at light speed when they see you.

I believe there’s a slicer setting somewhere to always travel within already printed material, which prevents stringing entirely if there’s no disconnected pieces in a layer. The problem is I set it a long time ago when I had issues, then forgot it.

Are you aware that granola is basically muesli with sugar and/or honey?
