I click “Hide URL” on every image, video, link, etc that I post, and I don’t think I’m alone there. It’d be nice to make this an optional global default!

Hey winnie, that totally makes sense, and I’ll look into this as soon as I can. Thanks for posting it

+1. I always use Hide URL and all my shortcuts that add links appended the hiding slug so I don’t have to deal with it every time.

this is ready for testing at https://deploy-preview-371--kinopio-client.netlify.app/
paste urls let me know if anything breaks 
instead of a preference this will be the new global default behaviour

Hello! Sorry to bump!
Here is a link that doesn’t work nicely with this behaviour:
https://adamstorr.azurewebsites.net/blog/top-level-statements-and-dependency-injection-in-net5.0
When you paste it, Kinopio transforms it to: https://adamstorr.azurewebsites.net/blog/top-level-statements-and-dependency-injection-in-net5?hidden=true.0
To get card previews to work, I have to manually edit it to https://adamstorr.azurewebsites.net/blog/top-level-statements-and-dependency-injection-in-net5.0#
I also recently clicked through to a site where the ?hidden=true caused the page not to load properly because it had some bad behaviour around handling the querystring, can’t remember the site though.
I think I’d like to be able to disable this setting as a preference :] But I know that’s annoying!

i think i can fix the root problem for sus urls with .s in the name so a pref wouldn’t be needed. will reopen for now
