Hi eretaval, thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Do you get the same behavior when using another service, or only in Whatsapp?
Have you tried contacting them for assistance, since it's related to their program?
This will help me to assist further!

Hi Jay, as far as I know, the issue is still present in most messaging services: instagram, etc.
The link appears the same, no thumbnail or title 😞
I've tried different devices, browsers, clearing cache and it still looks the same.
Please let us have the links as they used to be, these new ones are awful and unpractical.
