Can you remove the link that the author refused to link, or is that an automatic Lemmy feature?

[–] Max_P@lemmy.max-p.me 2 points 1 year ago

Automatic feature. Anything that looks like a valid domain gets autolinked

I can't edit the top box, but I edited mine to take out the duplicate text. The link was automatic though.
