    It maybe is a bug?

    The thief vs AAA leads to a youtube video but looks like a picture, the post beneath is also a yt video but clearly shows it opens external.

    The one text post shows none and therefore it’s known text.

    The top post is a clickable picture

      Yes this is a little confusing… I like the idea of adding a url preview to posts to show what you’re actually opening before tapping on a link from a post. This would eliminate confusion altogether whether it opens an app like YT or a website.

      It could literally just be the main handle of the website ex. youtube.com, imgur.com, lemmy.world etc., doesn’t have to show the full url.
