I was today years old when I learned that (on macOS) single-click-and-drag will use character granularity for selection whereas DOUBLE-click-and-drag will use word granularity for selection!
@sommer I have literally worked on parts of AppKit's text system and did not know this 😂 neat!
@Catfish_Man @sommer also try triple-click
@overstrike @sommer oh wait, I knew triple click but didn't know triple click and drag. Neat!
@Catfish_Man @overstrike @sommer ctrl-return in Sonoma remains my favorite littlest feature this year.
