Hey @rejaeika, thanks for reaching out!

Unfortunately some websites don't scrape very nicely, either they don't have meta data available (which is what Links List attempts to read), or it blocks LinksList from reading any data at all. Unfortunately I can't really do much about this, however I am working on a work around which will at least let people edit the title/description to something they know represents the link. The link will still function normally, it just doesn't look at pretty in the list.
