Why is user-select: none and pointer-events: none applied to the content here? In the DOM it's perfectly serviceable content, even if the divs are absolutely positioned to achieve the editorial layout. If you disable these CSS properties the text is selectable and pastes in the right order as expected, since its based on the DOM ordering which matches the line order...

Additionally overflow is hidden, so you cannot read the entire text on desktop without using a very small zoom... and as others have noted, mobile is fully and completely broken. If the bubbles weren't so huge at least you could read a paragraph or two on mobile.

Full of emdashes and AI comparisons like "The performance improvement is not incremental -- it is categorical" too :-\
