The new UX of hyperlinks in Slack is a nightmare. They took what looked like a hyperlink but was plain text and converted it into some weird object. You can no longer edit it inline after you pasted it. I want to understand the internal reasoning of whoever thought this was a good idea.

Where I used to use this the most? Copy a single GitHub PR link and just paste multiple times and edit the number at the end for each to get a list of PRs I wanted to share. Now I need to copy each one separately and paste. 🤦‍♂️

I try not to rant / criticize a whole lot, because there's enough of that going around. But each time I need to paste a URL in Slack, it makes me miserable now.
