> Ok, here’s a weird bug. When an URL contains --, the markdown converts it do – For example, this URL: cs--preview.khanacademy.org If I explicitly insert a link, it works, even though it is rendered incorectly: [https://cs--preview.khanacademy.org](https://cs--preview.khanacademy.org) [https://cs–preview.khanacademy.org](https://cs--preview.khanacademy.org) PS: Hm, linkifying seems to be disabled here on meta, but hopefully the second example makes things clear.

By the way, this is not really about embedding, the link itself does not work, as you demonstrated.
