Awesome. Just works! Does the exact thing I was looking for which is keeping me in the same tab while giving me link previews. Using it in Arc. Thanks for making it!

Saw you on Reddit, the top result when you search link previewer requires tokens for previews. In my opinion, this should top and replace that! It definitely works, those who say it don't work are in the wrong environment, or are doing something wrong. Review below me in terms of date says that it doesn't work, but it does, tested on Brave.

Не работают, не поняла, как пользоваться, какие клавиши нажимать, при наведении ничего не срабатывает, зажимаю — тоже ничего не срабатывает.
