Nothing, it’s just a built in feature

Just dropping in to say thanks to whoever tweaked log-in so I got the email option back on my laptop. And if nobody tweaked anything, I'd like to thank my laptop for finally realising it's not a phone.

So if I just post the url of a news site it'll change it to the preview image?
I'll test it;

It doesn't work for me. I've been using the insert link option. Is there another option I should be using?
Copying and pasting the link into your reply works.

Ok, lets try this;
Oh cool. That makes it way easier. I usually copy the link and then have to go add the headline. This way does it all in one go

Every now and then I get this as a new tab opening whilst browsing the forum.
I've disabled all my extensions, checked for malware using the latest definitions & checked to see if my browser is upto date.
Only happens on OcUK forum

Using ublock of pihole? It looks like it might be blocking that referer in the url.

Is this in progress?OK, can we have this behaviour back please?
At the moment, this grey envelope doesn't do anything at all. It did on Friday, it stopped on Saturday.

It's in the OP for things to be dealt with so I hope so.

The default selection isn't good enough, hence asking for the bright colours to be reinstated?

Can look into it if you insist, but I dont think the "bright" colors are particularly easy on the eyes across all the themes where the default options work on all of them.
Red Default
Red Bright
Green Default
Green Bright
Yellow Default
Yellow Bright
The bright colours stand out more specifically when a Moderator posts a warning or comment within a thread - for the use they normally get, then easy on the eye isn't a requirement (although I get your point that the default colours are much better for normal users colouring things)
I m starting to wonder if some of these problems with embedded posts and the like might be changes in browsers themselves and timing might have some coincidence.
Another forum is having the problem in firefox now but they didnt do an update, and I was browsing a website on my android phone and the page takes time to settle down with its loading, its ultimately a problem related to lazy-loading which is now rampant across modern web sites.
