If I had users who needed to be that engaged with the content, they would be the sort of target audience I could easily have run scriptreplay in a terminal.
(I see this more as a demo thing to show people what is possible than, say, documentation to crib from, but I can see the value in being able to do that.)
FWIW, iOS 15 automatically OCR’s screenshots, so now copy paste works again (even from non-selectable text in apps).
However, most times I have problems with copy paste, it’s not due to gif’s. It’s due to some BS framework thing rendering text in some non-standard way.
