Right click and select "look up" and get a definition of a word.

I'm trying to get away from Chrome. I don't like Google. I am TRYING to love Firefox, but it's missing so many basic things.

You can right click and select "look up" and get a definition in every other popular browser besides Firefox.

Chrome, Brave, Safari, Edge. They ALL have this feature. Why? Because it's a basic feature that should be included in every web browser.

This is seriously blowing my mind that this option doesn't exist in Firefox.

I searched around the web and everywhere tells me to install: "Google Dictionary (by Google)" Yeah, that doesn't exist.

Or to install: "Dictionary Anywhere" Yeah, that is broken and doesn't work.

The reason why people aren't using Firefox is because it is missing a TON of basic features. Like less than 3% of the internet uses Firefox. And I bet 1/2 those users are the entire Linux community.

Can we please just get basic functionality without having to search around for 10 different add-ons? Please?

Thanks.
