Sketchy when it just says whatever and then goes to some random site. Could literally be anything on the other end.

      I have “always trust domains” off, but I don’t get any pop-up like that.

      Edit: it’s because I also had “use external browser” on. Feel like I should still get the popup though.

        Hmmm, this might be the reason then. I have mine set to open in external browser as well so that it opens in Firefox with add-ons.

    Until someone found a way to exploit it. And / or it became popular to pre roll advertisements before revealing the link preview.

    Something like that already exists though, no? If I hover over that whatever-link, I can see it goes to Youtube. And AFAIK all browsers do that since ~forever.

      But I’m posting this in an Android app forum. I don’t have the ability to do that on this app on Android since it’s not a browser with a cursor.
