I, however, am not a robot.
Who is this disco duck? (haha)

Pretty cool.
This may have already been discussed upthread, and if it was then I forgot. What follows is verbatim from their post. I removed the quote tags —
This circa 1945 Chevy.
I’m building my first poll. Testing it out.
- This must be the poll title, right? This is a Single Choice poll
- Option 1
- Option 2
- Option 3. OK, inserting poll now…
0
voters
I’m utterly in favor of Option 2 and anyone who disagrees with me must be an ignortant poopyhead!!! 
.
Since you posted 2, i went with 3
nevermind
testing cancel
\displaystyle \frac{2\cancel{lb}}{1} * \frac{16 oz}{1\cancel{lb}} = ?
AHA!
Cool.
BTW, been meaning to say, I like your avatar. IIRC it’s the only official flag to have more than 13 stripes…?
Thanks, and you’re correct, of course. I use it to recall the words of our National Anthem, written by Key after witnessing Fort McHenry flying that very flag during and after the British bombardment.
Testing
Here’s link to a story that I posted earlier today. I inserted some spaces so the software wouldn’t preview the story.

When I copy and paste the link from Chrome, Discourse does this:
But when I copy and paste from Edge, here’s what I get:
Kristi Noem Narrated Her Own Audiobook Lying About Meeting Kim Jong Un (businessinsider.com)
Why the difference?
When you copy from Chrome, only the text of the url itself is being put in the clipboard. When you copy from Edge, it puts the text of the url, plus some metadata from the page. You can see the difference if you paste into MS Word.
Here at Discourse, when it gets text, it checks to see if it’s an url, and if it is, it creates a onebox link for it. When it gets text plus metadata from an url, it inserts those without doing the onebox.
In raw form, from Chrome:
https://www.businessinsider.com/kristi-noem-narrated-audiobook-lying-about-meeting-kim-jong-un-2024-5
From Edge:
[Kristi Noem Narrated Her Own Audiobook Lying About Meeting Kim Jong Un (businessinsider.com)](https://www.businessinsider.com/kristi-noem-narrated-audiobook-lying-about-meeting-kim-jong-un-2024-5)
You can use the same [viewable text](linking url) format if you want to embed a link into a paragraph.
Also note, you can enclose text within backquotes `unprocessed text` to avoid Discourse doing any processing on it.
Thanks! Very helpful.
