Feature request: hyperlink URL popup

Unless I'm missing an obvious option, it doesn't seem like there is a way to check where a post hyperlink is going to send you without clicking on it.

It'd be great if long pressing or clicking on a hyperlink would open a text box that previewed the link URL and let you click through to the site, copy the URL, or share it.

RIF on Reddit had a similar feature which was extremely useful.

Rif also had buttons in that popup to step through all the links in an comment one by one iirc.🤔

Also very useful because fingertips are big and links are small and sometimes very close together.
