Final Result!

All you have to do is to add a link in a new line. To make it work, the link

  • must be publicly accessible.
  • must have Open Graph or Twitter meta tags.

We consider link previews as embeds. So, the website has to have embeds turned on (See the embeds/KaTeX announement for more details on it). Maximum embeds per comment is 3.

What are your thoughts on this little new feature?
