Optional confirmation with full URL preview for all external link visits

As somebody who avoids Google products like the pest, I would greatly appreciate the option to blacklist some hosts.

The simplest way of implementing this would already be very appreciated. The links don't necessarily have to be hidden but a prompt asking me if i really want to open it would already be great!

I'm not sure about blacklisting, but there's already a way to preview link url: part of it will be in header of long-press menu

For instance, some posts have YouTube videos in them. I often click them, thinking it's an image but instead the internal browser opens up and loads YouTube.

Is there an option to show me the difference between a regular image post and a video post with a preview image?

Sadly, there isn't.

I would say almost for sure that blacklist functionality would be considered a bloat and won't be merged in any case. Still, optional confirm dialog with full url preview (like in Telegram and maybe other messengers) would be nice. I'll rename this issue to reflect this so it's easier to pick up from list
