Crashloop after sharing a link

[WRMSRwasTaken]

Steps to reproduce

After sharing a Link (the link in question: https://www.reddit.com/r/Ubiquiti/comments/v9gkl4/who_else_is_about_to_start_their_own_datacenter/ ) from the Discord mobile app to Element and closing it afterwards, I am no longer able to open the app. It seems to be crashlooping / freezing on the main screen.

Unfortunately. logcat doesn't seem to be much of a help here. I enabled SETTINGS_LABS_ALLOW_EXTENDED_LOGS via another app because I am unable to open Element, but there are no stack traces at all. Also the homeserver does not seem to log any problems while this is happening.

I am expecting a problem with the URL preview feature, but disabling it (setting SETTINGS_SHOW_UTL_PREVIEW_KEY to false) does not seem to help either.

Logs while running adb logcat and opening Element: putty.log

I am out of Ideas on how to troubleshooting this further. Force-closing the app and deleting the cache does not yield and better results. And deleting application data (resetting the app) isn't really an option for me as this might let the (potential bug) vanish.

Updating to 1.4.20 made this problem disappear.
