Dropdown suggestions not selectable on Wiktionary

I use wiktionary a lot on my phone. When I'm looking for a Word, the Wiktionary search bar offers suggestions while typing. However, when I try to select one of the suggestions (since this would be much easier than completing the word I've been typing) the dropdown suggestions box disappears. (Firefox for Android. Phone Samsung S22, Android 14, OneUi 6.1, Firefox 134.0.1) I have no idea whether this is an issue about how Wiktionary is coded, or how Firefox works, or about Android os but in any case I'm weary of this and I'm considering installing another browser on my phone just for wiktionary. I've been using Firefox since the beginning I guess, and since I don't want to use any other browser I hope this issue is resolved as soon as possible.
