Post confirmation and preview
We should have an optional post confirmation screen that shows a preview of the rendered post before you click send.
Maybe we should have this on iOS as well ? @danieldaquino
rock suggested a separate preview button so you can skip it if you don't want to preview
@jb55 what is the underlying issue that we are trying to resolve with this post preview?
@danieldaquino I pasted a URL and accidently added an extra character on the end, a preview would have caught that. Also when you are tagging people or pasting npubs, it can get screwed up if you backspace too many times. It's just a quick "check to make sure I didn't screw up something" before you post.
Alternatively we can just try to ensure we always have a rich text preview, but rich text previews can obfuscate the underlying text sometimes.
On iOS we don't have 'preview post' feature request. However, we have 10 second undo post functionality:

@robagreda @karnagebitcoin what is a best UI practice?
- preview post, or
- 10 second undo?

Hard to decide. 10 sec is a long time to show a notice. I imagine you wouldn't do that, and only have it in note options - but that might not be obvious the first time. I kinda like the idea of a preview button, but might be more cumbersome on mobile. 10 sec undo in options might be the easier option to implement and solves the occasional mis-formatted post issue
