Bot is posting an embedded link even when the link is enclosed in "<>" angle brackets, which natively prevent an embed in discord #82

Bot is posting an embedded link even when the link is enclosed in "<>" angle brackets, which natively prevent an embed in discord.

For my use case, this is a blocker for using this bot in my server, since people sometimes make long posts with multiple links, and we prefer to have them unembedded to keep things more organized. The only workaround we've found is to delete the LinkFix response post, but that's not a permission that we're willing to give to every user who might encounter this issue, so it would require active moderation for us to implement this bot.

As an example, here's a screencap of an example link I posted. I've opened the edit window after posting so that you can see the original syntax of the post.
