Hyperlink pasting behavior

When I saw this post, I realized a problem I had previously overlooked: when the copied rich text is entirely a link, pasting it into Bike will be plain text. The link only works when the rich text includes formats other than the link itself.

For example, on this page: Using Links | Bike

Perhaps I am slow, as I remember this change from a couple months ago? And there was also a discussion about link formatting at the time, but I can’t find the post now, and I forget what was discussed about. Maybe there’s a consensus on the current behavior of links, sorry I’m a bit out of touch.

That’s a good find, I’m not sure I’d noticed that.

It might have been another topic I started, which is related but not the same:

Apparently I’m a big hyperlink user :grinning:

Me too! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

And I just realized that it behaves the same way in TextEdit.app, which means this is system-level behavior. Sorry for the bother…
