@nikitonsky@mastodon.online It's even worse, the SVG exists purely to handle the text selection, and what's displayed on top of it is a dynamically generated raster graphic put into an img tag. That's also why there's the weird copy-paste discrepancy, because both don't line up. This is amazing, it's like they had a challenge to implement this in the most complicated and unreliable way possible. :neofox_googly_shocked:

@volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip aha, right, should’ve digged deeper. That explains the low-res rendering I guess, because SVG would be at least scalabel

@volpeon@icy.wyvern.rip @nikitonsky@mastodon.online Let me see if I understand this There IS text there, in an svg, which means that it's selectable and screen-readerable and all except then they create a completely different graphic of the text and draw that OVER the real text and the positioning of it is fucked up so that it doesn't select right?
