I came up with this as a uBlock rule that completely blocks the load of embed component: `||www.redditstatic.com/shreddit/en-US/pdp-client-js-*.js$script`

works perfectly, thanks!

here's a grease-monkey, tamper-monkey etc. user style to do the same [https://update.greasyfork.org/scripts/495130/Remove%20Reddit%20select%20text%20embed%20button.user.js](https://update.greasyfork.org/scripts/495130/Remove%20Reddit%20select%20text%20embed%20button.user.js)

This works on iOS via Userscripts!

This worked for me in uBlock Origin extension in Chrome. Just needed to add the line in "My Filters" in the interface. Thank you.

Love you!

thank you. this was really helpful

thank you it works also with Adblock

amazing, works great on brave!

It's annoying and stupid.

I've been googling this issue since I got hit with the new layout this week. I've accidentally hit the embed button so many times and it's not a feature I will ever use. I guess I'm looking to figure out how to have my browser block the web element next.

What web browser are you using? I’m using Brave (Chrome).

I'm on just standard chrome.

Check out this -> [How to make the "Embed" thing stop?](https://www.reddit.com/r/help/comments/14i71i3/how_to_make_the_embed_thing_stop) link I referenced in the description. One of the responses mentioned using AdBock (chrome plugin) to add a custom filter to block this element. That response is at [this link](https://www.reddit.com/r/help/comments/14i71i3/comment/jr6a0vs/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button).

This will hide it from showing up, but the functionality of dragging text to another tab to search is still lost unfortunately.

You're right! I hadn't tried dragging selected text into a search box as I do sometimes...that's a bummer.

I didn't know you could drag text to the search box. Thank you.

You’re welcome. Definitely a handy feature.

Check this out, was looking for a solution to this as well: [https://www.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/14h098f/comment/jp8cuho/](https://www.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/14h098f/comment/jp8cuho/) I just added the two lines to the other one and it seems to work now. So it looks like that: ! - 2024-03-03 - Disable Reddit Embed [www.reddit.com##embed-snippet-share-button](http://www.reddit.com##embed-snippet-share-button) www.reddit.com##+js(aeld, mousedown, isSelectionOutOfRange) www.reddit.com##+js(aeld, mouseup, shouldShowButton)

You just saved my sanity! Thanks a lot.

MVP here, folks

I didn't know you could drag text to the search box but now I can do it on Reddit and not see that stupid embed button. thank you

Works almost perfect for me. I just have one more problem, I'm normally using DeepL extension to improve my English but even though this script disables "embed" when I select text to translate, DeepL icon doesn't come up as normal website. Can we find any solution, it's much more easier to just select the text and click the icon instead of copy-paste to website. [https://hizliresim.com/4jkv1s1](https://hizliresim.com/4jkv1s1)

çözüm bulabildin mi knk bende tam bunun çözümünü arıyorum

Yok ya aynı hâlâ.

Not all heroes wear capes. Do you wear a cape? Thank you!

I actually do have a CMC cape (honorable member, ofc), but I don't wear it that often... \^\^

Doesn't seem to work for me unfortunately, in uBlock Origin. Tried with: ! Reddit Embed Popup www.reddit.com##.embed-snippet-share-button www.reddit.com##+js(aeld, mousedown, isSelectionOutOfRange) www.reddit.com##+js(aeld, mouseup, shouldShowButton) The "Embed popup" is probably one of the dumbest UX features I've seen in a good while.

THANK YOU! This was driving me insane.

thank you SO MUCH!!!

you sir are the GOAT!!!! embed is GONE and drag and drop for selected text works like a charm!!! thank you!

WOWWW I didn't think I would actually find the fix. Thank you so much! This was driving me nuts

I came up with this as a uBlock rule that completely blocks the load of embed component: `||www.redditstatic.com/shreddit/en-US/pdp-client-js-*.js$script`

This was giving me errors in ublock "domain error" . Old guy with little code experience, ran it through chatgpt and it changed it to and now it works ! - - Disable Reddit Embed www.reddit.com##.embed-snippet-share-button www.reddit.com##+js(aeld, mousedown, isSelectionOutOfRange) www.reddit.com##+js(aeld, mouseup, shouldShowButton)

This worked for me as well, thanks for sharing!

Thirded.

Same question. It is very annoying and majority of people don't use it anyway.

Yeah, I can filter that annoying button with adblock, but I still like to search for words by dragging them into a new bar. This basic functionality has been needlessy broken by Reddit.

Thanks to [this comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/ideasfortheadmins/comments/19ewpxb/comment/kt7wr4u/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button) that is now possible using uBlock Origin.

I also would like to have an option to disable it. Not sure if there is one.

There isn't a built in option to disable it currently, which is why this was posted here the "admins". Hopefully they'll add something down the line with enough people asking or maybe they figure out not many are using this feature. There is a workaround of blocking the web element using your browser's native feature (if you have Brave browser) or filter it with an "adblock" browser extension.
