The link preview thing whatsapp use this weird way of handling it. The preview has to be loaded on the sender end first, then the receiver will get it. If the link was sent before preview was loaded, then the receiver just getting plain ol blue text.
On any other messenger, imessage, discord, etc. the clients try to load the preview on the receiver end. Simpler and work so much better.
