Selecting a part of a paragraph (or the entire paragraph, by dragging mouse from the beginning to the end) -- does not work.
Selecting the entire paragraph by double clicking—works.
Selecting across the paragraph boundary—works.
(So my hypothesis is that there is something like an invisible character after each paragraph, and a selection works only if it contains at least one such character.)
Like Vanessa described, the smiley is there, after selecting I can freely move the mouse cursor across the entire screen, but when I get the mouse cursor on the smiley, it disappears, and the text is unselected.

What browser/OS? (it’s definitely supposed to be able to highlight a subset of a paragraph, and which currently seems to work on Chrome 114 on MacOS)
Firefox 113.0.2 (64-bit) on Windows 10 Home
