Hello, I'm on Ubuntu 22.04 and have the Firefox (107.0 64bit) installed as a snap.

The drag and selecting text and even dragging objects on any websites doesn't work.

  • I select text on the website by pressing down and starting to drag the text doesn't select when I leave the hold the entire block gets highlighted
  • I use Excalidraw, the pencil tool drag and any object size change while drag doesn't work
  • Desmos I can't drag the points on the graph
  • The pointer just disappears on videos (not just YouTube) and isn't visible until I pause the video

After re installation, it was working fine but after few days again it started the same problems i.e no dragging, pointer invisible on videos, can't drag objects. I tried both snap remove --purge firefox and just snap remove firefox.
