iPhone Turn of haptic touch iOS 13 / Siri not calling on speakerphone

[Quackington]

Hello.

I've upgraded to the iPhone 11 after owning an iPhone 6 since 2014. Loving the speed upgrade, but getting used to this full-screen, buttonless phone. One thing I didn't have to deal with on my old phone is 3D / haptic touch. I'm not a fan of it, especially whilst browsing a forum I visit. On my old iPhone, I'd long-press a link and open in a new tab, and the page would load at the last post I read up to, so I'd carry on reading from where I was up to before. Now, long-pressing shows a preview of the page, and I think this messes things up, because when I tap to open in a new tab, it loads the page right at the top and not where I was before. Even when clicking on a quote alert where it shoud take me to the message where someone quoted me, it doesn't - I just end up at the top of the page. I've googled it and lots of web pages say you can turn off haptic touch, but I can't see it. I've gone to Accessibility > Touch > Haptic touch, but don't see the option to disable it (just an option for fast/slow). Is there anything I can do about this or get it to stop working for Safari? At least just turning off the web page preview when long-tapping a link.

Another issue I have is that I use Siri to request calls to contacts. Siri responds saying it's calling X person 'on speaker', but it doesn't actually call on speakerphone. I have to tap that option once it starts ringing I used to have this same issue on my iPhone 6. Any way to fix this at all?

Thanks.

I've found that Apple has ****ed up a lot with 3D Touch in Safari. I used to use it all the time to preview links, now it's a smaller window for no reason, I have to tap the tiny side of the screen for it to go away since the bottom menu randomly switches sides (a really unusual UX elements that seems to have been designed by someone who's never designed a UX before).

And now, there's absolutely not difference between long-tapping and force-touching. Didn't want to actually load the page? Too bad, now the page is marked as viewed because you loaded it even though you just wanted to copy the link.

I found out how to turn the preview off. If you long press a link, there's an option at the bottom to turn previews off. Hooray.

Thanks. But now I can't view links I want to view. Such a stupid idea. Combining two separate functions with two different use cases into one is such a dumb idea. Sometimes I just want to view where a hyperlink goes without opening it. Other times I just want a preview of a picture or something.
