Thank you for adding that. I can appreciate it now that I am aware it is a feature you've added and was not due to some experiment done by users. Thank you for your efforts!
I do forget about mobile a lot as I've never browsed poal on a phone, and rarely ever browse any web sites at all from a phone.
I apologize also that my usage of "obfuscating' was not correct for what I was meaning. Perhaps 'wrapping' may have been better for describing the link being made to be displayed as text but be clickable instead of being a raw link. Thank you for noting the proper term for that 'insert link as clickable text' function that I was trying to describe.
You're welcome.
I first added icons for hyperlinks to let users know what kind of links they were (website or direct links to images/videos/audio files), and later on thought about adding domains next to them to make it easier for mobile users.
