Some characters after URL mean topic link doesn't work

I think it’s because you can add things like .rss, so if you finish off a sentence in brackets with a link the full stop then Discourse thinks it’s all part of the URL.

i don’t understand why you are including periods and exclamation marks as part of the links. and why are you using the square brackets like that? what is the use case you are doing?

(Sometimes sentences appear within round or square brackets.)

i was probably overthinking what you are trying to do. you are just talking about random use of square brackets i assume. yea they can break stuff occasionally in markdown links.
