Link handling (feddit.uk)
submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by PhobosAnomaly@feddit.uk to c/summit@lemmy.world
 

Any chance the way in which links are handled could be amended? I've not seen the Summit design docs but it appears as though when a user clicks a link, a dialog box appears and the app tries to preview the link, before the user can continue onwards.

In this instance, it would appear that the preview call has failed in some fashion, and does not allow the user to proceed with either copying or opening the link - both buttons are unresponsive.

Any chance the previewing can be interrupted with a "Open Anyway" or "Force Open" button, with perhaps a first-time-only warning stating that only trusted links should be blindly opened?

Cheers!

You can disable the preview.

Yeah I know, but I quite like that preview (or anti-Rickroll technology). It would be nice to have the preview be a bit more responsive is all.

This is a bug. Thanks for reporting this issue. Will fix for the next release.
