[Feature Request] Add "Copy link" option to context menu #2082

Open beantaco opened 2 years ago

beantaco commented 2 years ago

I often want to copy just a link within a message but there is no context menu option available. If I right-click a message to copy its entire text, I need to paste it into a text editor and then remove all but the link I want. Alternatively, I could attempt to select just the link using the mouse cursor, but sometimes have difficulty doing that for example accidentally clicking on the link.

An additional option "Copy link" in the context menu when right-clicking on a link within a message would be helpful.

Version: 1.7.4 (Linux)

I like the way Discord and Telegram do this, a link is shown as blue and non underlined normally, and then when you hover over it it is underlined, at this point if you right click the context menu will show you a "Copy link" option

Should be relatively easy to add
