Is there a way to see the url or just the domain for a post link before I click? I'd like to be able to know where the link leads before opening it... I'm taking about in the main feed. I use the compact layout but I don't see an option for either mode.

I'm using the full (large) view & the link urls are visible in link posts, either standalone or under the link media...

Ah yes, you're right, thanks. Not sure how I missed that. It would be cool if just the domain could be fit into the compact view somehow...

Seems more prominent in the dark & light themes, rather than in full amoled mode, but once aware of them its fine... I guess something had to give in the compact view, although opening the post does display the link...but then I guess that defeats the object a bit?..๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Yeah, I guess seeing the link in the comments view is ok too. I'm still kinda getting used to the UI.

I think this would be a great feature for links in comments as well.
