What do you guys think about adding a " Link Preview " as in Facebook ? Would be a nice idea to have a sneak peak of what the link offers.

    I don't see links converting to preview here. Why so ?

    I'm going to bump this a year and a half later - link previews are essential, IMO. Everything does them these days. Is anyone aware of an existing extension that does this?

      I was going to work on this 🙂
      Wouldn't be available for beta 7 though, since beta 8 is coming soon.

      Okay amazing magical developers out there! I’ve seen some cool new extensions this year. Some seem pretty complex, like they took a lot of hard work! So, I know for a fact there are dev community members here who could do this. Maybe even start with the outdated one above?

      The coolest sites have link previews. I’m also not saying this extension would need to do any scraping. The first version could just look for OG tags and if the site has none, then no preview. First version could even omit the image. What would be the point? No image means less resource hogging. It could at least grab the URL’s title and description.
