Hyperlink Markdown
Now that Discord has the feature where it warns you when clicking an unidentified link, maybe it could be used to protect people who click on a Hyperlink.
A hyperlink is obviously like this, and it would be cool if we could embed a link in text so we don't have to clutter our posts with long links. Since Discord has the feature that warns you when heading towards an unidentified URL or domain, this could be used when people click on a hyperlink for security reasons.
It's been two years now, and Discord has been using Markdown for a while, so I'm quite surprised this is not in for normal member messages, considering bot embeds has it.

Bump. There are many use cases where this would be an extremally useful feature!!

Bump. Bots already have this feature in regular messages (not just embeds) and it's stupid that regular users aren't able to use it.

I want this badly and I'm kinda bumped that this has not turned into a feature after many years.

I think this feature is very much needed but in addition, I feel this power needs to be enabled via a server role.
- New users have to get promoted before they are granted the privilege to "spam" embedded URLs.
- This should also not be enabled for messages from unknown users, This way we HAVE to be friends / trusted before URLs can be embedded.
- URLs that are formatted as a URL MUST NOT be able to be embedded as to look like a legit URL.
- EXAMPLE: https://www.google.com/search?q=cute%20kittens
The text looks like a simple google search BUT it is actually an evil prank but could have been something MUCH worse!

For click with link text, must need to pop-up messages like this, to avoid spams.

How's this not a thing yet? It's not a complex feature.
