I like most of these, but I'm on the fence about Link Preview. I find it gets in the way as often as it helps me. I end up triggering it by accident quite a bit, and especially the wikipedia version where there's no X in the corner to dismiss the preview can become annoying. The footnote pop-up bubble on substack can have the same problem.

On a slow and unreliable connection, it's also one more thing that I wish had a toggle to turn off.

Related to this, something I consider an anti-feature: any form of messing with a link to a different page that results in Control+Click not opening a new tab. Bonus negative points if you've scripted it to redirect the page in the current tab and there's no very good reason for it to be a single-page application (draw.io has a reason, the average blog does not).
