Anyone else want to be able to review the link text on hyperlinks? I appreciate how they are called out in a list below the post, but they only show the link text and not the href link. I would like to see whether the link leads to e.g. an untrusted or disliked URL without opening it.
This behavior can be customized under Settings -> Links -> Tappable Links. By default it uses “contextual,” which will display the full link in large contexts and just the title in compact contexts (e.g., comments if you have comment display set to “compact”). Setting it to “large” will always display the full link regardless of context.
That’s it, thanks! I did not know that was what Tappable Links referred to!
interestingly, it does show up on this post, but elsewhere in comment feeds it does not. i wonder if there is a difference for op?
Yep, no URL preview on the response, only on the OP.
I see a preview on the op and the reply. Unless I am misunderstanding.
yes it has to do with the view settings. which is slightly unintuitive to me
