Unfurl removes chevrons in preview?

Open balint-backmaker opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Describe the bug When we paste GitHub links to .toml files, it seems that the unfurl removes the <> characters. Maybe it's a security feature, but it would be nice to not ignore these and validate instead (or refuse explicitly, in case of suspicious text)

To Reproduce Paste this link in a channel: https://github.com/testcontainers/testcontainers-python/blob/main/pyproject.toml#L5

Expected behavior We expect the exact line to be reproduced as:

authors = ["Sergey Pirogov <[email protected]>"]

Screenshots unfurl_bug

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
  • Browser: slack desktop
  • Version Snap 4.36.140 64-bit

Additional context Tried on my phone, I don't think this is device dependent. Multiple colleagues reported the same observation when we had the issue.
